It definitely makes life happy, and gives it spirit. Better than chopping holly or kudzu.

Hedges are done for about 6 months. Clippings go in a big pile at the back of the yard until they rot or we haul them away. We call it Holly/Wood.

I could mention a few that have to be dealt with more that twice a year. But I’m trying to be nice.

I know, but I have this weird “do unto others” ethic. Can’t seem to shake it.

It’s OK to have the ethic, but to act on it is another thing.  I prefer to just leave everyone alone.
