Busy weekend!

Sorry about the radio silence, but we were way busy all weekend.

Our yardwork is neverending but it is yielding some positive results. We dug up a huge amount of Bishop's Weed, a groundcover I suggest you plant in the yards of people you don't like. To call it aggressive is not really quite doing it justice. However, we ripped it all up from the side of the house, and now I can actually see my lily of the valley. It should actually bloom this year, since it won't be smothered.

Gratuitous lilac picture, since I don't have one of the lily of the valley:

Our garden continues to grow apace:

The big green blob in the foreground is sugar snap peas, behind that is spinach, and in the back are radishes. (This photo is for the buns.)

And here's Jeff mowing:

Also in the picture you can see my clothesline, upon which I hung my first stuff to dry this season over the weekend; our ash tree, planted the year before the emerald ash borer invaded Ohio; and our shed, under which live a family mice who provide much entertainment for the dogs.

In addition to all that, I crocheted, did tons of laundry, and we took one of Jeff's grandmothers out to dinner on Saturday night - I'll review the restaurant later.

So yeah, we were busy.
