Da Big Mess

So I think I imagined that digging post holes would look kind of like the tidy little holes that gophers make. You know, a hole with a ring of dirt around it.

It's not so. The after effect of post hole digging is more like a wasteland of refuse interspersed with invisible holes that jump up to get your foot when you're not looking. But all the holes are dug and some of the posts are already in. Tomorrow we pour concrete into the sonotubes for the deck footings, set the rest of the posts, and I probably get a lesson in putting up fence stringers.

If I'm not too busy driving around getting pastries for Floyd.
