A little Break for Something New

Don't feel bad Dusty. I've cut a bunch of it around here, too. As you must have determined already, just cutting it doesn't kill it. I guess we'll just mow around it. There are enough other nasty plants up here to satisfy my need to bend nature to my will...HA!

I may have to rethink this in so far as the sage goes. It is probably good cover and maybe feed for some of the birds that I don't want to drive off. Especially the quail and the road runners. The road runners won't feed on it but they may take cover under it.

I've never let the sage grow long enough to get large. Dumb stunt.

Here's a pic of the oysters ready to be leveled and filled with turquoise.

After filling, it will be cut for the box sides and ends.
More later.

Thanks, Terry.
It's been fun and a welcome departure from my "normal" cases, boxes and tables.
Sometimes, I just get bored.
