it's a jungle out there

coming home to a back yard like this is a big fat drag !! rigging can't go up till we have a yard..Marshall bagged 20 bags of needles, there must have been 20 -10 foot palm frounds, Spanish moss everywhere.. the dogs are going wild !! Spartacus gets lost in the grass, hunting. I hope the mowers come tomorrow . We have to lop off a bunch of Brazilian pepper trees growing in our yard ! We have a plethora of botany here !! The house has some cute , tiny ants..I spent the day armed with paper towels, bleach, lemon oil, sponges and rags . We scrubbed, cut, bagged, did laundry ,..got a little loopy but the first day is always monumental...
