Yard Work
So, we have been in our new place for about 3 months now. Almost all of our boxes are unpacked and we are close to living normally. I think we have about 6 or so boxes left to unpack. Soon. Soon.
We have been doing more yardwork than anything. There was a tree stump we had to remove. Nasty, ugly, thorny thing. That took about 6 hours total over a couple weekends. Then we attacked some type of ground cover. It looks nice as a small hedge, but when it overgrows and gets mixed in with blackberries, it's not so nice. We took out a huge blackberry bramble. I think i'm going to make set up a planter barrell for a small blackberry plant, dont know yet. In the process we found a grape vine. I hve no idea what type of grape it is, but i am hoping to possibly make wineb with it. It might be fun. Oh yea, i forgot to mention that the lady that lived here before us liked rocks. They are everywhere. Along the fence, in the bushes, behing the roses, and a small rock mound in the middle of the yard. Strange i say. Strange.
We got a vegtable and herb garden planted. Both are doing very well.
We just have about 3 more square yards to clear up from the wiley ground cover and hopefully the yard will be good enough for me. Oh yeah, we just need to plant some more grass seed. The lawn looks good, but i want it to be better.
