TGAJT

Yesterday when I was messing around out front, I decided that it would be the day of The Great Autumn Joy Transfer from our back south-facing flower bed to the front side bed.

Here's what it looked like in it's old spot. Nice, but I wanted to plant Rosemary on either side of the crawspace well. So, it had to go.

I dug it out and then split it into fourths with a spade. Then it went into it's new home. Here's two of them.
There's some tiny fern stuff growing by that manhole. (Manhole..that's a funny word. Wouldn't it be crazy if I were weeding one day and a man popped up out of it?)


So I turn to my left to inspect the upcoming chore we're dreading. Look at the Easter present someone left me! No colored eggs, but they were thoughtful enough to leave me their carton.


(Insert mad and frustrated face here.) Why God? Why?!

Anyway, I accepted the situation and moved on up the hill to the little tree. Remember this? It's where the extra compost bin blocks came from. Well, I cleaned that up some.We're thinking about removing the red brick border things from around the trees in front and just having mulch around them. The Crimson King border is worse than the Eastern Pine bed was, although that hasn't been started on yet. I also dug out the non-performing shrub from the west facing bed. It was tough, but I won in the end.
