With special thanks to all the rain we received yesterday, I was able to pretty much finish up doing the roto-tilling of the new garden on the side of the house. I say "pretty much" because I've found that the tines don't overlap which leaves some un-tilled soil in between each of the tines despite the appearance of being completely tilled over. I've tried to go back and re-till in between where I did the initial passes and have improved on things somewhat.
I think that what I have is good enough for now especially considering I intend to amend the soil with compost. The large swaths are paths on either side of where utilities lay. Odds are good that I'll make one more pass just to make sure everything's turned over well enough.
Next up is to sink more fence posts and to cut plywood into strips to work as a border for mulch.
