Garden path construction

Anticipating a very hot day, my garden work started at 5:30 am. I turned on the big flood light on the back of the house and got busy setting landscape timbers to line the garden paths in the back flower bed. I am setting each timber level and stair-stepping them to accomodate the gentle slope of the garden. This means some annoying digging and testing with a level, but the results are quite nice I think. The path will be lined with landscape fabric and topped with shredded cedar mulch. I knocked off work about 10 am and cooled off in the swimming pool...one benefit of Oklahoma living!
