ATTACKING OUR JUNGLE

 Whew...lots of heavy duty work this weekend.

We finally attacked our weed jungle in our backyard.

What a job!

And as the song goes..." We have only just begun"

Lots of work and manual labor.



We are so grateful for the lawnmower our son gave us.  It's still a lot of walking and hard work but I am thrilled that Dave is able to do it.

It's really hard to see the weeds on the side of the lawn but..oh my, they were and are so high

and many are prickly.

I pulled for 2 hours straight and got most of those ugly things gone.



there are so many more of those buggers to pull but that will be another day.

My backside muscles tell me wait a day or two  ..  ouch!!

To be continued...

As much as it is fun to work outside, there is always the temptation to overdo it. That at least is my problem. Your grass looks so nice and green.

wow good for you....that's a lot of work and it looks great ...so neat and clean. I do work up here ..tons of pine needles, etc...and it only lasts awhile before the squirrels get up in the cedar trees and chew off branches which then drops to the yard. it's always a mess.
