Have you ever wanted to jump on a mower and just set off in a random pattern?
I have.
Only, this time, I wanted to mow a fairy-like winding, path.
But before I could just jump the old pony, I hit a roadblock named Chuck.
You see, Chuck likes to mow.
He likes for things to look neat.
(the above statement is only applicable to outdoors)
I am still getting to know this grownup version of Chuck.
Lemme tell you, he's come a long way since our days in the Mill Village when he swore the rain would take care of whatever waste our 2 dogs produced in a 600 square foot of space.
(The rain did NOT take care of it.)
Anyway, all I asked is that he leave the strip of land beside our house alone.
No mowing that spot.
He gave me a real hard time, but I won the battle.
Ya'll knew I would didn't ya?
The woman always wins these types of battles.
Then boy, I set off. I meandered through that tall grass ever' which way.
I had a real good time too.
Our path is long.....
And Charley LOVES it.
She spends a lot of time wondering up and down the path.
It's like she sees the land in a whole new way.
Sure, we may need to hire a bush hogger before the Summer is done,
but I say,
totally worth it.
(The above statement is contingent on the price of the bush hogging.)
oh my gosh! That is so much prettier then I expected it to be. Just beautiful. How many acres of land do you have? (This has always been a dream of mine, to own a lot of land. Now my new dream will be to create a fairy path.)
ReplyDeleteWe've got about 3 acres Katie.

ReplyDeleteLooks neat - sounds fun!!! I hope no snakes choose to make a home in that big grass, you know me, always gotta worry about snakes:)
ReplyDeleteThat's really cool! Can you make little gardens of different things in the areas around the path? Like an English style garden that leads into some veggies and then into a wildflower section, etc., etc.? Then you could make the path into a rock path. Plant a weeping willow or two... Hang some lights. Magical.
ReplyDeleteSunny don't give her any ideas. She has plenty all by herself. :)
