I haven't been posting as often as I'm spending every moment I can outside pulling things up by their roots. Prickly weedy vines have overtaken all the lovely flowering bushes and are winding around tree branches, ready to pull them down, too. I've been out there with loppers and clippers and cloppers, cutting lives of trees short, depriving birds of nesting places, and removing bugs and worms from their natural habitats.
Nature fights back, though. My arms are scraped and scratched, I have puncture wounds from thorns as big as fencing foils, and my face hasn't bee this sunburned in years. YEARS! I suppose I've gotten out of the sunscreen habit.
