Trimming the Hedge

One of our last pre-winter gardening task is trimming the hedge at the back of the yard.

The hedge harbors a lot of wild vines that we pull out every year - wild grape and Virginia creeper.

It takes Terry half a day to do it - while I hold the ladder.

This year, when we were done, he said: Next year we should probably have a professional do it.

(Exactly what I was thinking!)
