Partly sunny 65ยบ
Up at 7:00 and on the road to Warrensville by 8:00 via State Route 275. arrived at 9:00 and David was at the price organic waiting. had inspected the various products and we decided Barnyard mix compost was the one to buy. paid $23 for one cubic yard and $21 for six bags mulch loaded on David’s pickup. At Terradise by 10:30 David worked so hard unloading and spreading to make new bed along the road under the rail fence. then cleaned the area in front of house. transplanted the third hydrangea toward the front. then spread more in bed by lower driveway. no need to buy mulch compost better. he left about 3:00 ($250 to him). I hauled several loads of weeds to burning pile because they included Bishop’s weed and wild garlic and dandelions in seed. He used half capacity of Roundup on gravel walk and weedy campanula.
Had supper of lasagna, corn kernels, bread and marmalade ready for Jed, Rachel and Miette at 6:00 but they didn’t arrive until 7:00. Took golf cart ride through lower woods.
