    Spent $300 on a garden... Not my idea but hope it helps when I spend $300 on a new tool

    Did do some woodworking for the garden though. Made the frame out of stacked timbers At least I got to use the chopsaw and drill.
    I'm a Joe of all trades. It's a first, it'll catch on.

    Worked Friday/Sunday, had a relaxed Saturday (waited for the new snow fall to melt) with a little time in the shop and then a great evening out with the family to see the Del McCoury Band! My son was able to get all the band to sign his newly purchased cd and photos to boot! Also caught some NCAA men's b-ball...I am a new fan of Cornell, my Badgers took one on the chin.

    Also spent money on the garden. Four yards of compost so far. My picumup will hold two yards at a wack, so two loads in one day wears me and my old wheelbarrow out! Now to add two yards of bark fines and a couple of yards of sand. Maybe something will grow this year. I'd hate for all those bugs to go hungry

    Dug out the plants in the front hard-scapeing that grew larger than anticipated. Trimmed back some "bushes" that threatened to become trees if left un-tended. Cleaned up more "stuff" in the shop as another step towards my current re-org efforts. Started a SketchUp of an under the bench drawer unit.

    LOML and I went to an antique tractor show near Fort Wayne, IN and spent the weekend over there and LOML Jr went to grandma and grandpa's. Other than the tractor show, mostly LOML shopped though I did manage to visit Woodcraft We came home Sunday around noon and LOML and I thoroughly cleaned the insides of our vehicles which were disgusting after a messy winter.

    I am redoing the cabinets in the Master Bath - 16' long. Cut all the drawer fronts, cut new handles, and sanded the panels down to 220. One coat of BLO. Doesn't sound like much.

    Worked on tuning up a cheap craftsman plane I was given. Can now cut transparent shavings on mahogany.
