Dale - Those 18 trees used to be part of a hedge that overgrew. They rocked back and forth like swings in windstorms and was afraid they would topple over like my neighbours one did last year. There was also lots of goutweed at the base that I wanted to get rid of - hence the reasons.
String - I hate cutting trees but will grow more evergreens at the far section of my yard. After I tackle the weeds and goutweed roots (underneath the soil) I'll have to figure out what to plant. I want a deck in the back and more of a privacy fence but they may not come for a couple of years.
Passionate about music/singing and travel. I’ve travelled to 30+ countries on shoe-string budgets, lived in France, trained my voice and sing: jazz, rock and classical. Love each one for their differences and challenges.
Today much of my learning comes from travelling and appreciating cultures. I believe all should travel to see how others live elsewhere. While we have different faiths, foods etc., essentially we’re the same. Peace to us all!

Grace - Uh, well now I have to clean up the weeds. But! a huge accomplishment has been made.
Sure AM!
Yay Lesley!
Looks very neat and tidy.Do you have plans for a new hedge and is there a particular reason you took down the trees?
Just wondering...
Now you can't climb the trees over the fence and have a swim!

Well done! It didn't take that long did it? I'm going to try it too!
Ah ha! What are you going to plant there?

Wow! That was some hard work. Once the rest of the hard yakka is done, you can have some fun planning what to do next. :o)
Happy Equinox! (It's a bit cool and rainy here, but makes the falling leaves look shiny and lovely)
