Mountain Climber

Today started with a nifty little rainstorm, and ended with a high of 83 degrees in the backyard. P, our new gardener, made quick work of a couple of projects, prepping the area for a new metal planting bed. Actually a stock tank. Apparently a popular solution to triumphing over gophers. It will give me a raised area for flowers, keep out storm debris, and, yes, foil the gophers!
