Ugly Rock Wall

Today’s project was the rock wall around the mailbox. It consumed most of the morning and as I walked around it, it looked pretty good. As I drove out of the driveway it looked totally different. It will have to be torn down and rebuilt. It is a good thing it is dry stacked. One more attempt will be made and then I will admit that I am not much of a rock mason.

One row of peppers was pulled up yesterday. All of the ties were saved for next year as well as the sticks. The peppers on the vines filled 2 1/2 bags. Most were given away but the ugly peppers were saved for pepper-spray. This morning the plants were laid out on the yard and mulched with the lawn mower before going into the compost pile.

The mesclun is big enough to start cutting, so maybe we will have a salad tomorrow. A big bag of greens was picked for supper tonight. Somehow greens and a salad is just too much at one time.
