I think my age is slowly starting to catch up to me... I don't seem to remember aching like this a few years ago and I'm completely exhausted after today. My parents like to remind me I've seen nothing yet ;)

We did finish the trench today, total circumference of 126ft at a depth of 30 inches. Just hoping the rain doesn't cause me any trouble tonight - up to 2.5" in a 24hr period has been forecast. It'll be another week before the rhizome barrier gets here from Oregon; they had the best price I could find online.

If everything works out with the transplanting the last week of January (providing it doesn't rain or isn't frigid again) - I should have this done by the first of February. Then all that'll be left is to mulch sometime around March.
