do you have one of those places on your property that you hope no one ever sees?
well, this is one of two of ours...
(you'll get to see the other one next weekend)
and it is a sight, or was...
this is after much clean up...
everything that we don't know what to do with, goes on the dirt pile...
its all the dirt they dug out for our foundation...
and we have taken off of here for 18 years to fill in holes in the yard and to level areas out...
and its still a pretty good hill...
and behind it is all the previous concrete that was here that was dug out with a back hoe and just piled in the back...
and it was growing weeds and trees...
so we worked on that...
and then I pulled weeds out of the day lilies which are going to be opening sometime this week...
and the rain sure did the garden good...
and we put some more green beans in today...
everything has blooms on it...
so I sat in the shade, fighting the gnats...
and got things done...
and we trimmed the persimmon and the maple over here...
and that's the way its gone today...
and we spent the whole morning together...
you know what they say...
the family that weeds together, stays together...
and they put the roller back in front of the tree...
and Craig grabbed a piece of lattice to hide it...
going to ask the neighbors if they want it...
have no way of pulling it anymore...
and that is a major improvement...
see how big the corn is?
we didn't even fill the trash can...
but will probably get that done later this week when we start on the other problem area...
just wait until you see that...
one of these days...
we will hire someone with a bobcat or back hoe and a trailer to come in and clear off that concrete/ rock pile and level the rest of the hill out...
its only been there 18 years now...
a little while longer won't hurt a thing...
;)
so, off for a nap I go...
later...
Sounds like you deserve a Nap. Oh yes I wish I could say I only had one place in my yard that goes neglected, the I am going to get around to it. You're an inspiration hope tomorrow will be as cool as it was today so I can tackle weeds.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week. Kathy
I will be anxious to see the corn when I am home in July!
ReplyDeleteIt must feel good to have accomplished such a big job.
ReplyDeleteDid everyone take a nap, or just you?lol.
It all looks great at your place!
Have a nice week, Tete.
xo
I can't believe all you are getting done this summer, Tete. You are just working your fool head off. You are right- 18 years and what's one more? It's looking good if you ask me- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteJust 2? Wish that were all the places here that could use a backhoe..
ReplyDeleteOh, dear...we have such a messy place where Mr. Sweet does all his welding and making beautiful things that we had a privacy fence put up so it wouldn't be so offensive. Oh, but I do love some of the things that come out of that ugly spot. :))
