hey hey … not the computer people!!! if it wasn’t for wikipedia I wouldn’t have realized I’m a human til now….. all that time I thought “Weirdo” is a name for some species o_O

Dan if i was you. When you go to get that new shovel i would also get a pick axe. Help you break thru that hard ground.

How about a drip hose running for a few days to soften the ground? You’ll need it to keep the new bushes watered too.

Grandpa is right

Look at like a good excuse to buy one or two new power tools. And spend days researching with videos… with a bag of chips and ‘a beverage’.

I used a 4-inch augur bit on my power drill. Chomped right through that clay and hard packed dirt

Indulge your inner tool guy. Think jackhammer!

I’ve never broken shovels. I’ve bent the handles far enough to worry me but never broken one. I agree with the pickaxe suggestion.

Two words: Spud bar. Best money ever spent.

I guess they don’t make shovels like they used to.
