Tx for your good wishes Salsacharley.
It is an ongoing challenge for sure, I'm just happy to be well enough to continue with little projects year by year.
Back in the day I was proud to work with a wheelbarrow and no machine on the land. Ha ha. Nowadays I dream of having a little money to rent a mini-backhoe!!! Heck that would be a lot of fun.
I think there's something in the soil that makes gardeners optimists.
I could really see me having a day with that mini-backhoe, somehow.
