Backyard Contruction

 Well I have been getting the back yard fencing put up.  the main Gate and the back is almost closed. What remains is the little section that have to get creative around a tree that divides the yards from the neighbors. Julie weeded the Garden today. it's looking great and the peas are really growing. we should have some good on that and lots of tomatoes as well as potatoes. I have two 55 gallon drums that trying a backyard experiment with them. according to what I read on growing potatoes in a drum is that suppose to yield like around 200lbs. so we will find out how correct that claim is.
 My idea is to start getting the family working on the Garden so that when we do get a house and land we can be more self reliable   I  believe that is important as we learn to build our family that we learn to reduce the financial overhead of supporting this kind of family.
 While we still live in the city, It's good to at least try to  work on this together as a family. Sometimes that is easier said then done.We have been married Ange:  going on five years, Brandy three years, and Julie one year. At time with three women it can be challenging as they each have their own personality. I think individuality is important. not sure how other families do it.
