Mulching Up The School

Today we joined several families from Alex's school to mulch the area underneath several new ropes course elements scattered throughout the Maumee Valley 72 acre campus. We brought our wheelbarrow, shovel and several rakes to help move piles of mulch to spread underneath the elements. I was mostly on wheelbarrow-filling duty and Becky served double duty as a mulch spreader and a kiddo wrangler. Alex helped spread the mulch and fetched donuts from the snack table for him and his brother. Aaron basically threw mulch and ate said donuts.

When we got home Becky and Alex still had enough energy to plant a few Dutch allium bulbs which we should get to see in the late Spring. I'm really sore and moving very slowly. A long spiky thorn plant stabbed my hand and its starting to swell. Hopefully just an icepack and some Aleve will settle it down.
