The dirty girls, five of us, dominated at the Zen garden today. There were carpenters, painters and Brain hastings (Lou!) and they were all surprised by the garden girls. We had a very efficient wheel barrow brigade (we are now a TWO wheelbarrow outfit) with which we basically cleaned out the whole garden and spread 8 yards of mulch by 1 PM. Except for the sound of the excavator and our laughter, all was quiet at the Zen garden.
We really impressed them until one of our cars got stuck in the mud and we couldn't get it out. Then we had to be real girls and ask Brian Hastings to help us get it out. I could have pulled it out with the truck...if I knew how. I asked Brian how and he said just get up a lot of speed and be sure to give the chain a good snap. When I said, 'oh, okay' and started walking towards the truck, he knew he had to intervene. (uh, how was I supposed to know he was joking?!?)
Brian and his partner got the car out and okay now I have to confess it was my sister's car, because Cheryl said "Oh, I owe you for helping me out - I'll bring you a plate of chocolate chip cookies. To which Brian's partner replied, "oh, a six pack will probably taste better."

8 yards of mulch before 1:00!!! That is incredible!!! Dirty Girls rock!!!!!
those weren't dirty girls, they must have been absolutely filthy females to spread that much mulch. I don't think Brain, I mean Brian could do that much, even with a winch.
