There are many small cedars on the land, and they are undesirable. So we dug a few out to see if we could do it. These our friends Mary and Shane on the left, with Terri on the right.

It's best to get them while they are small.

Shane and Mary working on some more.

Then we looked for a few potential hose sites. After picking a few, we dug a hole in one of them, to see what it's like to dig there and what the soil is like. The top soil seems to be a healthy sandy clay.

Mary digging and Terri watching. Go Mary!
