Nothing like working the holidays
There is nothing quite like working through your holidays. We took two weeks off, started a daily garden log of getting up at sunrise and working as long as we could, usually five or six hours, before it got too hot, we got too tired and broke for lunch.
In the afternoon it was other chores and projects in the shade or indoors.
It is unbelievable how long it takes to weed and degrass a flower bed. We have ten of various sizes in the front yard and it took all 14 days to finish them off… and actually, one of them is not yet done.
The five yards of cedar mulch we had disappeared. And here we thought it would last through the back yard beds as well.

Today at least we have had a good rain.. 16mm so far, with a chance of a thunderstorm later tonight.
Then 5 solid days of sun.. good grass pulling weather!
