Well I did not finish , but it does look a whole lot nicer at the moment.
I did manage to get out 3 stumps - 1 small tree , and 2 poke berry (I think) roots
1 more maple tree stump to get along the fence.
I was digging it up with my little hand hoe/cultivator until I saw this
this bush has already got me once , reaching my hand into it to prune it and got stung by a wasp or two that had a nest on one of the branches
one year , my whole hand swelled up. So I finished trimming the crabgrass with the weed eater for now , rather then risking a snake bite.
