Thanks for asking about the garden project. I think we should go with the raised bed approach along the south fence. The soil there gets good drainage and plenty of sun through the afternoon. We can start prepping the ground this weekend if the weather holds. I already checked the forecast and Saturday looks dry. The cedar planks I ordered arrived yesterday so we have enough material to build three beds. Let me know if you want to adjust the dimensions before I cut anything.

About the weekend trip we discussed earlier. I checked the cabin availability and there is one slot open for the first weekend of next month. The place has three bedrooms and a full kitchen so we would have plenty of space. The owner said they allow pets as long as they are kept on a leash outside. I can send over the photos if you want to see the layout before we decide. Let me know what you think and I will put down the reservation.
