Back to the Garden

Monday and Tuesday down.  Most of yesterday was spent with inroductory stuff in the morning and after lunch I worked on the famous glass house borders edging and weeding.  Today was a very nice day unfortunately we had a very boring meeting this morning for the entire herbacious department and it was very hard for me to stay awake.  After the meeting though we got into the thick of it.  We were working in what is known as the wild garden but the wild garden got a bit to wild and some major work had to be done.  Several trees were removed and I got the joy of pulling out honeysuckle.  It was an all day job that required a lot of physical labor and I am sure I am going to be sore tomorrow.  There was also some manuvering underneath some of the shrubs and I'm sure I am going to find some interesting pieces of plant material in my hair.  The day went well though and so far the weather has been so nice it starts out brisk in the morning but quickly picks up around midday.  Just hanging out with my roommates at the house now.  So far the time is flying by and I have been distracted enough that the home sickness is bearable.  Looking forward to next week when I start with the propagation department.  Well hope all is well at home and I will be posting again later this week.
