The "Project"



My friend Suzanne who was a former companion in Taiwan recently sent out an email encouraging us to start and/or finish a project by June 16th. Dave and I have been trying to get our garden in for over a month, but darn Washington weather and "La Nina" has prohibited that from happening. We bought our vegetable plants and seeds a long time ago and the rabbits and slugs were taking a toll on them. So I figured this was the perfect project for Zanner's competition. The prize ( I failed to mention) is a Prada bag. Suzanne lives in Shang Hai, so they are either manufactured there or it is a cheap knock off and she is not telling us. Haha. Either way it was the right project for us.

I have posted a before and after photo of the 9 hour project. We have to use chicken wire around the boxes to keep the deer and rabbits out...oh yeah and Chancho and Jameson as well. Evidently Dave cut the wire very precisely. Of course we would not want to waste wire right?!? It took us 3 hours just to get the wiring done because we would get one almost done and find we were 9 inches too short so we'd have to undo that and try it on another one. We will make sure that we label them to avoid the hassle next year.
