Continuing from the rapture post...


We had a reverse rapture here. My backyard went from looking like **** to pretty damn good.

And for reference this one is from a few years ago, we went through clearing out weeds and garbage for a few years (weeds would grow back every year about 3-5ft tall)

We added some plants... sweet potatoe vine, blueberries and tomatos in the wine barrels, and several strawberry plants along the right side

25x40-45 but both neighbors have their fences set a bit further back on their sides, so its probably 27ish ft wide

It wasnt really a ladder, it was a structure to attach clothes lines to; though you can climb it. It's about 60ft tall, gets narrower as you go up with the top only being about 8" wide, and bolted together in 3 sections.

Id like to take it down, sand it, paint it, and put it back up, but im not sure how Id do that without killing myself.
