Yard Work is Hard Work! by lisabell

Yard Work is Hard Work!

We woke at the crack of dawn today to the sound of the dump truck delivering our massive pile of mulch. That was just the start of a very busy day in the yard. We edged the gardens, trimmed branches, and pulled weeds. We then took all of the yard waste to a recycling facility called Green Cycle where you drop it off in huge piles based upon what it is - grass clippings in one pile, branches in another and so forth. Then we mowed, dug out old bushes and planted new ones. While digging out the bushes, I cut the invisible fence wire so while Bill made repairs I started the mulching. It’s only late afternoon, and I’m exhausted. I came in to take a break and the rain started coming down in sheets. Looks like we’re off duty until tomorrow when the serious mulching begins. (And yes I did take a few breaks to run around the yard taking pictures in the process!)
i think you have a lovely garden! great collage

I had to delete my old post, which was fraught with misspellings... Your yard is lovely. I like the collage, it tells a story of the day..

Love this! I'm one who would much prefer working in the yard to shopping in the mall any day. Good luck with the weather for today's mulching. :)

Good idea to put it in a collage. Hope you feel like your hard work has been rewarded as you look about your yard.

It's nice that you are keeping a photo journal of your gardening work! It will change so much as the summer gets into full swing. It's a great piece of work.... the collage and the garden.
