I got more buckthorns pulled than expected! The behind the garden area is cleared back to the garden path, much of the groundhog hole is cleared. Now I have to tackle behind the shed, which is an unholy mess, and across the path behind the shed. I'll still have a huge area on the east side to redo, berries to sweep, and working my way into the woods. Plus I have not planted the half moon garden yet. But I did remove 2 Jerusalem artichokes from the back yard garden. I did not see any tubers. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I would have gotten more done but my neighbor, who is selling and moving, got into a physical row with her soon to be ex husband last night. I tried to figure out WTF but he was not home to talk to. Problem is I know she's gotten in fights twice this year so I'm not sure who started what but she landed in jail. What the heck is going on? If he refuses to sell, they will end up in a legal mess bcuz they are on land contract.

I would step out entirely but we've been tight through the pandemic and I am worried about her 4yo daughter...
