R2elk, you must be on a mountain ?
our weather is finally behaving and acting like summer. even getting rain once in awhile.
anxious for the grapes to get tall enough to tie to the posts.
I'm shopping for a cordless hedge/grass clipper. I can't get close to the posts with the lawn mower. I don't want to use the weed whacker because one little slip and the grape is cut off.

High plains desert. I am at a mile high elevation but the mountain looms above me toward the south.

Do you drift along with the tumbling tumbleweeds ?

Do you drift along with the tumbling tumbleweeds ?

Nah, I play catch and release with them. They hang up on my fences and I help them on their way.

Very kindly of you! Of course with so little "meat" on them, no sense bringing them into the kitchen to cook.

There was a time when tumbleweeds served as Christmas trees.
