RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I did the whole thing including getting the wood in an afternoon / most of a day. The real trick is that the cement is really deep in there so digging low enough to get it all out by hand was a lot of work. Also it was hard to tell when the cement stopped. I needed to get it done because there was a gap in our fence that our dog could get out of and it happened on the one warm day in February the first time and early March the second time so nice weather was not a given. So I went fast.
