So a few days later, when we got another break in the rain we hired a gal to do the planting. Man could she work! She dug up some of my existing plants that we had saved and planted the entire 60" of garden in front of the house in one afternoon. A lot of green right now but there will be more color soon and in the meantime I'll plant some annuals for immediate color - if it ever stops raining

Once that was done Doug was finally able to start seeding the front now that the planting is done. He has put so much work into rototilling, raking, fertilizing and then seeding and raking again.
