First I tilled up a spot for a new garden box in line with the rest. Once that was finished, I built the new box, excavated the soil and sunk the box. As with the other three, after the box was in the ground, I filled in the box with equal parts of native soil, bagged top soil, and LeafGro.

Finally some progress in the side garden
I had to stay home from work yesterday to address some window-related issues. Conveniently, we had some more warm weather so I was able to put the newly-serviced roto-tiller to work in the yard.

Once all that was completed, I tilled a swath along the west fence border. The tilled area is roughly 40' long x 3' wide. There's a lot more tilling to be done.
