I've become obsessed with clearing brush! It's such an immediate gratification type of work. It's right up there with vacumming a shag carpet! I've taken out two very large chokecherry trees that had choked out some lovely old wild rose bushes along the driveway. Two truck loads of brush into the burn pile. Gotta love it!

I'm taming the property and thinking it's sort of metaphorical with development of the Center. As I get more clear on the vision I've had over the past number of years I've got to get rid of the things that have "choked" me out and let the beauty of my ideas (the roses) grow strong again.

Gosh, it feels good!
