We have two sheds. There has always been a lot of "pig weed" growing rampant between them. This year I put some lumber wrap (i.e., tarps) down between them, with logs holding them down from the wind.
Yesterday I took a small folding saw out, to deal with some vines beyond the second shed. Then I worked my way forward, clearing up to the middle, and then decided to clear that area.
I removed the lumber wrap, and took down two large trees and probably five smaller ones. Plus a ton of vines, several of which were thicker than that largest tree!
I did all that with the folding saw, which meant a lot of squatting, and my ankle's paying for it today.
Later, I finished with the electric chainsaw, taking the limbs off and then cutting them into logs. Had I set out to clear that area, I probably would have started with the chainsaw sooner, at the sacrifice of a lesser workout.
It's so much clearer out there! The garden is beyond the sheds, so each morning's walk going out to water, it is much brighter! :)
I'll heal, and the space will stay clear (perhaps a garden next year?), so it's a win. :) Cheers all!
Come on, get some Nano Silver (colloidal silver) mixed with Turmeric on it, rub it in -helps with the swelling and pain. May leave a slight yellow tint for a day or two - but I tell you its worth it

I do have some colloidal silver; I purchase the brand Sovereign Silver, from Amazon. Haven't used it as a rub yet; will give it a shot!

No pain no gain... sounds like a lot of work. You're a winner! Steem symbol could double as icy cold symbol in this case!

Nice! I have been icing it; just pulled the weeds from around the garden fence, which was a lot of squatting, so it's in pain again now. Will need to water the garden in an hour or so, so I'll ice it after that.

No we have less than an acre here, and only a small part of that the garden is on; the fence is around 50' x 60'.
I'm recovering from multiple concussions (have made a few posts about them), and can no longer develop software, which I did for my career and was very good at. So now I'm gardening while recovering which is very helpful -- I get to spend time in the sun, and watch the growing process and progress, and when it's done I'll get something nice to eat!
And, having found Steemit, I can share what I'm doing which has worked out nicely -- I'm gaining some followers, learning some video/audio skills, and as I invested the account, am able to pretend I'm a whale. :)
(Oh, and one of the reasons I'm replying to this so late, is the concussions; the symptoms sometimes keep me away from something for a while, but I want (for whatever reason) that 30-day-posting badge so I'm making a post every day, even if I haven't checked my Replies tab for, now, five days...)

Thanks, how did you get the concussions?

First was a car accident; then a board fell on my head at home; then I hit my head on the top of a doorframe which was too short for code (a cellar door, as we were moving out about six months ago).

The second was a year and a half after the first; the third was a little less than a year and a half after the second. The third was about six months ago.

OK, must have been pretty traumatic. How did you manage to recover emotionally?

I don't think I have. Every day is a struggle. More than I want to preserve on the blockchain. Cheers.
