I've been fighting privets and mimosas for years. Each summer I spend entire weekends cutting small
sections and dragging them to the burn pile.
It seemed that when I got to the end of one area, they had sprouted back up where I started. I said things the could likely have me in the hot seat on judgment day.
Jilda and I decided to hire a bush hogging service. He came out about a month ago and walked the property with me. He said it would take about four hours to cut down the underbrush and mulch it. When I looked around, I had my doubts but decided to leave it to the professionals.
He showed up at 1:30 this afternoon, and at 5;30 he was pulling his bush cutting tractor back onto his truck.
The place looks fantastic. I was too tired to shoot pictures of the finished project, but I'll do that tomorrow.
Tonight I'm weary, but I'm happy.

You tired from all that work you didn't have to do?
ReplyDeletePoor baby!!
DeleteSometimes you need a little help.
ReplyDeleteWow. Colour me a tad jealous.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to the after pictures. It's always neat when you see a huge difference in just a few short hours
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to see the result.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Julia
All I gotta say is 'Them dudes can do some damage' in a short time. Much faster (for some reason) than the International with a bush hog behind at about 3 mph@!
ReplyDeleteYes, show us before and after pictures.
ReplyDeleteBut a mimosa is champagne and orange juice. Only a crazy person would destroy a mimosa!

It was a tragic lapse of judgment.

I may never recover from my disappointment in you.
