Yard work & musky dimes

I'm so excited!  Sugar Daddy helped me finish mulching around my muscadine & scuppernong vines!  It went SO much faster with him pushing the wheel barrow while I was laying down the paper & bricks.


Doesn't it look great?!?!  (Imagine this times 3)  We had the pea gravel left over from the shed foundation and the bricks were from tearing down the front of the house so "Free Project"! YAY!
Next: wire for the vines to run on.




See that bushy clump behind the good lookin' fella?


We spent more than a few days chopping down bushes & discovered it was a trash pit in the past...


 

lots of glass and broken bottles...
 
 
Filled up the ditch with limbs and fallen trees...



Got a load to take to the scrap metal place...

 
 
 
and now it looks like this!

  2. Can't wait to see it by the fall. Are you going to remove all the dead stuff at some point? Is Red safe from all that stuff?

  3. Red's the main reason we started clearing it out. Hes safe now. It's hard to tell but the limbs are filling a pretty steep little ditch. Hopefully as they rot they'll even it out enough that we can keep it cut with the bush hog. All that metal & glass was unacceptable in his pasture tho.

  4. WOW! What a transformation! It always feels so nice to get a pasture clean and spiffy. :)
