Some things *never* take a vacation…

A week away and the weeds and Japanese beetles had a field day: sigh. Too many Japanese beetles for plucking and flicking into the “bucket o’ death”.

Just spraying with Sevin reminds me of Indiana Jones not having the patience for his sword-wielding opponent (in the first movie), so he just pulls his gun and ends it quickly.

Note the little mint popping up in front of the begonia at the far left. Sigh. That’ll never be gone…

2016 edit: The mint still pops up. Sigh.

@gmitche47 I know you know the scene. Do you know the story behind it?

@angievega Another casualty of a week-long vacation: the egglings. :(

Yes, they can be extremely hard on all your hard work. Time to get even :)
