Dirt is here!

Today was a big day for our little plot. The soil arrived this morning bright and early. I had the afternoon off so I came home to find two piles waiting to be relocated. I got out my shovel and started into it. About 10 shovels full later I realised that I was in for a LONG afternoon. But I made it and eventually the dirt was put in the right spots and I managed to cover the ugly gravel with bark mulch. Here are some pictures from the day showing the progress.

No sprouts from the seedlings yet, but I am hopeful!
