I've said it here before: I rate yardwork right up there with getting dental work done. Joan, on the other hand, enjoys planting, potting, re-potting, watering, trimming, fertilizing, etc. Today was our monthly "Let's all go out and spruce up the yard" event.
We started with trimming the 23 plantings that are in our front yard...
I thought we wanted them to grow big. I was schooled in trimming and shaping. Hunting and pulling out any weeds that dare show their leafy green face in our yard. Then, I went over that spot with weed killer.
Steph wanted to try out the new weed-tool Joan bought...
I have to admit: the yard does look more manicured...
And with all 4 of us working at it, the time investment was only about an hour. Yeah, that's not so bad.
