I finally decided to clean up the bush at the end of the driveway

You can see I had a good helper. Zoe is always excited to join in.

When I got most of the work done, I realized why I haven’t cried it before, it was a bush that had grown over top of a big poison ivy vine.  A quick wash up and disaster was averted 🤪 I have one little spot on my arm, that’s all.

If you look closely, you will also notice a fence post that the tree has grown around over the years.
