Mom spent a lot of time and sweat putting in a new plant garden in the back yard, complete with a little rock lined "stream" to help with drainage. Edgar has spent a ridiculous amount of time digging in it. Every time he goes outside, he digs a little more. He eats something. I do not know what it is, and I do not care what it is. Mom sure does though. She yells at him all of the time now and has to clean off his face and his feet every time he comes back inside.
I laugh. She tells him every time he wants to go outside, "DO NOT DIG in the yard!" Every time. Poor mom is so frustrated with him. I keep trying to tell her that he is a boy and a dog and he will not obey. He just is not bright enough to stop.

| Here is the yard after all of Mom's hard work. |

| Notice the board across the "stream." |
The preliminary plants are in, the mulch is thick, and the rocks are looking good. Can you see me hiding behind the bush?

| Destruction! |
It really is an understatement to say that she is annoyed! At least you can see some of the plants have grown well. She has more plants to go in this fall. I can not wait for the crepe myrtles to get planted. They are so pretty!
*UPDATE: October 15, 2014. Edgar is still at it and the yard is even worse these days. Mom is now threatening to take him to the pound! I know she is kidding, but still, I do not think that is funny because Edgar does not understand. He does not understand that she is kidding yet he still digs in the yard. Boys! Go figure!
