BAMBOOZLED


We finally got the planted in the courtyard waterproofed and filled with dirt and bamboo planted. The planter ate over 2000 pounds of dirt and 8 huge blocks of peat moss! We thought it would never end. We had to end up harvesting the bamboo from around the house since nowhere in town sells the stuff. In doing so I got a nasty case of poison ivy on my arm and neck- no fun at all. All that is left is to cover the dirt with river rocks so that dirt doesn't splash on the window and pray for the bamboo to fill in so I don't have to go digging again. Big thanks to mom and dad who assisted through the whole weekend with the entire endeavor.
