You never know what you'll find...

Today I was prepping some planting holes and ran into/dug up this:

It was 18"x22", about 4" thick and appears to be poured concrete for some kind of footing. This bed area was once the location of an 12' wide mobile home that moved out when we bought the property. About twenty minutes later I found it's twin on the other side of the bed. This is the third year using this area as an additional bed (the Garden Stretcher at work). Last year I found two of these farther down the bed and suspected there might be more but hadn't run into more until today.

I used the mattock to grab the far side, pull it up and flip it towards me while being very careful to keep my feet clear. Then I used the flip technique to move it about 15' away where it's out of the way.
