Before the Santa Anas

What you see depicted is a small portion of the hack back in progress here at Casa Grande. Madame Alfred blew off her arbors last year, and she's about half again that size this year. Three trash barrels plus a few bags worth of lacing and crown reduction, and there's more to do. Donned my full body armor for the task. Virginia Creeper!! Aaaiii! Why did I plant that? Can't wait to see the smile on the Mow and Blow's face today as he maneuvers the mower easily through the side yard for the first time in months.
