Compare to May of last year.
Many passing by have suggested using a tiller. Well, that would requiring renting one, obtaining safety shoes, and risking digging in the nasty weeds that they may root again. Sadly, I think the digging is the only way for me. Took on the driveway edge. Whatever those weeds are, they are serious and tenacious.
At least I am finding my marbles. Three on the left in just the past week. The rest from earlier diggings here.

I dropped my bag of marbles a little over a year ago, scattering them to the four winds. Still gathering them up again.
Your marbles are beautiful. I've always been partial to blue ones, but that orange and white aggie is pretty, too.
Mostly they are a bit wonky, too. Aspherical. Lost long ago, I suspect. Funny how easy they are to spot as I turn the soil.
There's no real substitute for slogging away by hand in the garden. It's always worth it in the long term.
RR,
This is where I've come to, any machine will not work long term. I need to know the ground, understand it.
Found another marble this morning.
