Today was hard, because my brother and I helped my aunt with yard work. We took apart the garden boxes she didn't want, cut down a dead tree, cut off some branches that caused issues, planted hostas, and removed some of the fencing around her garden. She had a low fence, but that didn't keep the critters out, so she put up a larger one shortly after, but left the old one up and just put the new one around the old one. Well, 10 years of not being able to cut the grass growing between them made it a 2 hour job. Lots of yanking and cutting the base of the fence. If we had a propane torch to burn the 8 inch long grass so it didn't clump it to the ground, we'd have been done in 30 minutes. Well, when we take down the other fence, we'll bring a torch. Later.
