Spent the day pulling honeysuckle vines out of a homesteader client’s back fence. I turned a perfectly good set of pruning shears into beaters pulling all that stuff out, but this guy was just extra in every way

    Lol, yeah, they had been trimming them, but leaving the vines in the fence for years. I had to go ham like that on some crepe myrtle the previous owners put in my yard. I had been trying to kill them with other methods for a few years but they just kept coming back, so I went at em with a shovel, my beater axe, and a tamping bar. I’m still finding shoots from runners I missed
