Today, hubs sorted through garden aids as in plastic , twine, posts, grow bags, etc and cleared out an 8x16 foot space that is now ready to till. Meanwhile I raked about 2 tons of compost/dirt across 35x50 feet of garden as we are slowly leveling it. All the rocks are gathering up in the middle so I can collect those. Turkey hen and chicks kept us company and the 2 swarms of bees one absconded but we think the other one stayed. Hopefully. We want some HONEY this year...The borage, purple alyssum and comfrey plants are all blooming and one iris is up.

I took down the dead dogwood tree. Now Tumor has a new stump to sit on. We have gargoyles that sit on stumps.

Not sure what we call this guy.

The dogwood was pretty dry and made a nice blaze. It will end up in the garden or on the lawn one day.

@Dirtmechanic Remember that movie with Arnold Schwartzenegger: "It's not a Tumor" ?

You could have "Tumor" and "Sarcoma" !! :p

I have one like your Tumor but he's not cement, some type of plastic with rock powder in it. I painted him and, a small one of your other one that I also painted. The one like Tumor is in the garden but the other is on my mantle flanked by another gargoyle that's a cross between an eagle and god knows what else. I love gargoyles !! ❤️

I have heard about women with screwdrivers so it should not shock me that there are women with gargoyles. I thought I had married the only one!
