No, I am just mad that you have no rocks in your soils to dull your
spades.


What's the icon for sticking out my tongue!?

The main tool I have is a 25 pound breaker bar that I sharpen by
dragging it up and down my concrete driveway. I have broken two post
hole diggers putting in fence post holes. One of my neighbors got all
the permits and training to use dynamite to get through the rocks and
I thought of doing that too.

Can't you make raised beds?

There is so much beauty and countless reasons to live in and around Austin, but
it is difficult to garden in the hills. I don't mean to be condescending, but
have you read Scott Ogden's book "Gardening in Difficult Soils?" I know you had
trouble with the posts, but how do you do with gardening in the rock?
