    It never stops. But that is why you have children….to do all the hot, sweaty, dusty, backbreaking chores we had to do when we were kids. Just think of the valuable lesson, not to mention colorful vocabulary, they will learn…. :mrgreen:

    You can always lay old newspapers over the weeds and weigh them down with some soil. Without the sun the weeds die down and it also keeps moisture in the soil for the plants. The newspaper eventually breaks down into mulch. :thumbsup:

    For every good(the veggies) there is an evil(weeds).

    That’s a good idea, Marcy! I just wish the plants in my garden were as strong as the weeds! Weeds always come back no matter what I do!

    Suzanne, a really clever use of the picture. It reals lets you see the little bit first and progressively how much there is to get the weeds done in. I can see you’re really making good use of your new toy…I mean acquisition.

    Loreth, your bit of the earth can’t be that bad either from what I read. Actually, my friend’s daughter is back in the Whistler area for the summer doing a play program for kids while the parents do some vacationing.

    But I do agree, except for the gardening and hoeing I’d love to be in Suzanne’s area. I grew up on the praire with only a little dip in the general flatness of the roads and a drop to the Assiniboine River on whose shore we had our house in Winnipeg. I know what Toni Anderson is going through especially with those lovely winters.:grin:

The Slanted Little House

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....
