It took a couple of hours to drag off all the bamboo and grapevines that I cut down yesterday. I guess what took the longest was paring down pieces of grapevine that I'm going to make baskets out of. I also picked the bunches of ripe grapes off of the fallen vines - I ended up with a plastic grocery bag full. I had to keep the bag closed up so that the local yellow jackets wouldn't set up shop in it!
I finally managed to get the second tea shrub planted. *whew* Then I decided to go dig a hole for the butterfly bush. I was nearly finished with the five gallon-sized hole when the shovel clanked onto what turned out to be some sort of drain line. Um, oops. So I filled that hole back in and am looking for a new site for the butterfly bush. I'm trying to position it near the garden so that hopefully pollinators will wander from the bush to the veggies.
And I planted the daffodils.
Gosh, I'm tired. But I guess I'd better start picking through those grapes ...

I just want to say thank you for the job well done by the tree trimmers who worked on my yard today.
The team who worked on my lawn yesterday was very professional and knowledgeable!
