I did it, another two hours of labor digging the pit! My back knows the pit is getting bigger. It complains every time I dig. Usually, screaming uncle by the second hour. I would like to say it is getting easier. I don't think that will be true until June gets here. I will have done enough manual labor to get back into good shape. I tell myself every year that if I would just keep in shape over the winter, spring would be easier on the body. I did work out this winter, but obviously not enough.
Zeke had to hang out near my work area. He tried to sneak off once, but digging is not enough of a distraction to give him the time he needs to disappear. By the end of the two hours he was content to hang out, sleep and watch me work. I am saving the water side for last.
We used 864 gallons of propane last year to heat and cook in our house. This was a drop from previous years. If this trend continues with our new freestanding propane stove in the dining room I think it will pay for itself in five years. The savings in propane is amazing.
