Vegetable Garden started

Bob came around with his digger. He had said we could use it to dig up the ground for our veggie garden. But when he saw how much grass there was he decided to go fetch his tractor first.
Bob has taught Rachel how to ride his 4 wheeler. When they go on the farm he will hop off to open and close gates and so it's easier if she just drives through. Here she is showing me how she drives.
Back with the "big guns".
Rachel enjoyed being in the tractor.
Moving a huge amount of grass very quickly. With a bit of sand, yes, but that mound at the hedge will be for our pumpkin patch.
Bob decided to quickly "give us a hand" with our grass cutting while he had the tractor here. He quickly cut a huge area (that would have taken us hours and hours). It was the section that had least priority to get cut and so was just not gotten too. What a huge help.
Bob shows Brendon how to use the digger.
And Brendon gets to work. Imagine how long that would have taken with a fork.
Thank you Bob so very much for all your help. It would have taken us soooo long to get this bed ready with the equipment we had that we probably would have run out of time to plant anything this year.
So our vegetable garden has gotten started......
