Garden 2011-Pea Trellis

My wonderful hubby worked on another one of my crazy projects...a pea trellis. Last year in St. Louis I started my peas to late and while I got peas, I don't think that they produced to their full potential. So we are starting earlier this year and it all begins with a trellis. Here is step 1, pounding in the center post.
Step 2- drilling and putting the sides together. I know it is super tall, but I might plant poll beans this year and they can grow that tall, so it is a dual purpose trellis.
Carefully threading the twine through the holes at the top. Look its so bright and sunny out! YAY!
Step 3-semi-complete...it needs the twine threaded through the holes on the poles starting at the bottom but a certain little person had, had enough of his parents gardening, so hoping tomorrow I will be able to go out and thread twine!
Thank you to my wonderful husband for always doing my crazy projects. I hope you get as much enjoyment out of the garden as I do. Yay, gardening has begun!!!
