It looks like I should go out and buy more yard waste bags! Next week will be in the 70's!!

Mid Michigan.

I did fill one with some top debris, this week, but now that the temperatures are up and flowers are blooming, the bees and bugs should be out and about. I can't WAIT to clean these flower beds!

Our yard is littered with branches from recent high winds, with more high winds and storms expected this afternoon and evening. Also, I looked at the boxwoods and yew trees and my heart sank and the thought of the trimming they need. Last time we did that I carefully separated all the boxwood clippings and offered them free to any crafter who wanted them. No takers. So forget that this time!
