There once was a HUGE, OVERGROWN rosebush...
















Since the weekend weather in Salt Lake was so nice, Jason and I decided to take full advantage of this spring like weather and get some yard work done. So on Saturday we decided to take on the task of digging out a rose bush in our backyard that was severly overgrown (like 15 years worth of overgrowth). We did not realize how overgrown it was until we started digging. Not only that, the smart people that lived in our house several years ago must have decided to plant this rose bush next to an existing, what appeared to be, tree!! Except they didn't take the roots out of the ground--just left them for us to enjoy!! Needless to say SEVERAL hours and about 200lbs later, the rose bush/tree was out of the ground!! I don't think I will ever look at a rose the same way :)
