Love wstching how you mske things come together. As a former ebay guitar buying addict I have sold a load of amps and guitars. Had 20+ guitars and 8 amps. Sad but necessary. Keeping my favourites. Started growing food in my suburban garden but worried about what is sprayed overhead daily.
LOL. I still have 8! Sadly I broke my left wrist a couple of years ago so cannot play like I used to and was never any goid to begin with. Anning to move home in a couple of years if still alive so downsizing now is something I am comfy with.
My husband and I have 13 between the two of us, but that's counting two bass guitars, two travel guitars, an ukulele, one guitar that never gets played, and one unplayable guitar! He regularly plays on two different electric guitars and has one acoustic, and I have two acoustics and one electric. Sorry to hear about your wrist. Also, it doesn't matter how well you play, just that you enjoy it!
Thank you, Andy. I am aware of "no dig", though I was not aware of Charles. I thought about doing that with some of the lower beds, and I think I will if I set up another area for more melons and squash. I rather like digging though, and I will probably do a post just about that. That said, I am happy to have most of the digging I need done for this garden. I need to do another strawberry bed at the 80, but now that the garden center is about to go full-on, I might have to put that off.
Hunter, I am guessing that those old wooden fence posts have been stripped of the arsenic due to rain and snow melt over a couple of decades. It's probably already been cleansed by the layers of soil, sand, and rocks in the filtering-down process, where other chemicals and nutrients bind on their way to aquifers.
Yeah, those posts have been there many decades, but then I've never seen any wood quite so thoroughly treated, so I figured better than worrying about whether I should have worried about it.
Yeah, yeah about the singing. My regular guitar teacher is encouraging me too....

Paul, do you know the mathematical formula for how many guitars you actually need?
It's x + 1, where "x" is the number of guitars you already own!

Thanks WHD. Magic watching your garden grow!
I'm sure you're aware of the no dig method for keeping the growing ground in much better health.
But here's a Brit site. Loy of utubes about it too.

Also, bring on your singing, Swami!

I know what it's like to till 'mature prairie.' Called it something else though - weed infested %@#@&@
