Building a new garden bed and cold frame, with recycled concrete part 2

     We finished the first part of this project today.  Please read the part 1 previous blog for details.  Trying to get the bed "square" was a challenge but we did get close.  The next part of the plan is to place 4x4's at the corners of the bed, use recycled redwood bed boards to create a structure atop the concrete and eventually to build a cold frame cover out of fiberglass so that we can use the bed to grow winter veggies.  For now, we will be growing some bush peas, which I will plant tomorrow with the waxing moon.
My arms are tired from lifting, shoving, and moving the concrete!
