These are super ugly around my flower beds. I would like to replace them with some small timbers. I tried to dig them up with a shovel, and it looks like they are deeper than 6 inches. I am really trying to make this a do-it-yourself project, since my budget is small.
Railroad ties are heavy as hell, even for a strong guy. I had a similar situation and found the best way to get them loose is using a pick or grub axe and pry from one end. Once its loose you can roll it out of the hole. The easiest way to move them once you get them out is to lay it across a wheel barrow, and wheel them away.

I am interested to learn how to lay concrete brick as an edging in a landscaping bed. I have checked
on the internet for some websites but am always directed to large scale projects such as building patios and walkways. I know this cannot be difficult to do as long as everything is level and I believe that limestone should be used also? This project will be going around the patio area. Thanks for whatever information you can give me.
It all depends on how much time and money you want to spend as well as how durable you want it to be. There are several ways to do it.
If you want to line them up on their ends like soldiers, you should dig a small trench with the front of the trench being vertical and the back at an angle. Then just place the bricks in line next to each other and make them level. If you are really concerned that they all be level, you can run a string between stakes and use a line level that hangs on the string.
There are several variations on this style, you can place them side by side with the wide dimension facing out or with the narrow dimension facing out. You can also lay them at an angle for a sort of herring bone effect.
You can also dig a narrow trench the width of a brick and place them lying down end to end. Again, you can put the wide dimension up or the narrow dimension up, whichever you prefer.
A more durable installation, but probably overkill is to place some sand or pea gravel under the bricks.
Good Luck and Happy Gardening!

Landscaping Edging- A Defining Touch
Having landscaping is one thing. Keeping your landscaping well-groomed is another, as you may have discovered. And if you have discovered it, you are just one landscaping- homeowner among millions.
It’s a given that effectively designed landscaping can transform a home from boring to dazzling, and with the current gardening aids and how-to manuals, doing so is well within the grasp of the average homeowner. But getting the plants positioned and planted according to a well planned design is only the first step.
Once you have the plants in the ground, you’ll still be confronted with the space around them. Unless that space is clearly defined with crisp edges, your landscaping will have a slightly unkempt look. What can you do to prevent that look? Define it with some nice crisp edges.
