We've expanded our garden. Well, we've cleared a whole other area on our land that measures probably 30 x 40. I'm just guessing, though.
We're teaming up with some friends and starting a little community garden of sorts. As long as they come and help weed, they can take home part of the result.
We've got grape vines galore over here. I don't know what kind of grapes they are. They had attached themselves to trees and grew upwards of 30 feet in the air. The husband built an arbor for them upon my request. I love it. He originally suggested using store-bought wood. I wanted a more rustic look. We've got tons of wood from fallen trees...why not use those? Here is the finished product...
I had to yank down the vines from the tree. There is still one left that won't budge...and I'm not climbing up there to unhook it. While pulling them down I hit my face with a vine. I've got a nice scab on my nose now. It also busted my glasses... I need to start wearing protective goggles when I go outside.
From the vines and from pulling up saplings and roots and such, I've now got poison ivy on my face. Saw that one coming. I'm thinking I'll have poison ivy on my face from now until November.
