The Itsy Bitsy Spider...

This pruning business, year after year, is a bit like the labor of Sisyphus, rolling a ball up the mountain, only to watch it roll back down again, and begin again. But today, despite rain which helped to cancel plans of the Friends of Vintage Gardens to help to mulch, we did accomplish minor miracles. Our rice straw mulch was spread over about 3/4 of an acre by me, Michael and Pamela Temple, Juan and Mario who helps out from time to time. It was a wet and exhausting day, but worth the suffering, at least until the weeds show up again, and we begin again...
