I am trying to decide on fencing. I have some wire mess that I can use to make a fence. But, I am wondering if I should purchase a fence. I am also shopping on Craigslist to see if I can find something cheap or free.
So, I decided that I am going to try the garden project. I don't believe that I can build a 4X4 vehicle for my brother in the time that I have. I cannot wait until my boys can plant something.
I have been having trouble coming up with my 20% project until today. I have 2/3 different proposals. Please help me decide. We recently bought a home on 1 1/3 acres of nothing but dirt (see pictures above). Don't get me wrong I love my new huge yard but it is definitely a diamond in the rough. My little brother Danny (see above) lives with us full time. He uses a wheelchair and wheelchairs do not roll well on dirt.
Proposal #1 or 2 - came upon 3 ATVs. While we were outside checking them out he pointed out that the biggest one has a rack on the back. He stated that he would like to make a seat that we can secure to the back of it so that my little brother Danny, shown above, could ride on it with us. This gave me the idea to either design an off-road wheelchair for him (1) or design a seat that can be secured to the back of the ATV (2). Both of these proposals have the same questions.

My learning outcome will be that... Proposal #3? 2? Transforming my side patio into the family patio that I want. At least just that little square patch of soil you see in the picture. I would like to make my soil more plantable. At the moment the soil repels water and this makes it difficult to keep moist enough to grow something. I would like to work the soil, fence it off (to keep the great dane out), and plant something, anything. I really like gardening and have done it a little bit but, believe it or not, I have a lot of questions. Authentic Questions
My learning outcome will be that...
