Just call me "She-Ra of the Garden!"

lothiriel_1I managed to get the base of the birdbath out of the car, into the backyard, and into the spot I wanted to put it in, ALL BY MYSELF. And without throwing my back out, too! It had been set on a tarp in the back of my car, so all I did was drag the tarp out of the car and into my garden cart, which had a bag of mulch in it for cushioning. The hardest part was wheeling the cart into the backyard. So here it is, all set up and ready for customers:
And another view...

I knew I HAD to get the thing out of the car, because I need to buy some gravel for my planned walkway and there wouldn't have been enough room for the bags of gravel and the rock base. It occured to me that dragging would be easier than trying to lift, even with another person. Using the tarp and the cart with the mulch in it worked out perfectly! WOO-HOO!
