Wednesday June 3 2009 Concrete!

For the past two days at the garden, Justin and I have been working with another local man to mix concrete by hand and fix the base of one of the water reservoirs that were recently constructed. These were probably my favourite days at the garden even though they were strictly just hard manual labour, it felt as though I was actually accomplishing something. I’ve found it interesting both how something like that kind of work can make me feel so much better when my morning started out less than great and also how easily I can go from a horrible day to and amazing one in just a few hours.
