A man and his ditch.

.

My husband is not happy.

Not in any way, shape, or form.

.

.

Every time he goes outside he gravitates to the hideous Grand Canyon we now have at the edge of our property.

.

.

Talk about an eyesore. People are literally walking by with their mouths open. A few have even stopped in to ask… why?

.

.

What a mess. And aside from the fact they took a good two feet of our lawn? They couldn’t even be bothered to do it uniformly, and that rankles.

.

.

Let’s forget that it looks like a giant gaping maw…the whole purpose of the project was to stop the caving in and erosion.

.

.

See the stripes? That’s what happened after the first rain. All the seed and hay flowed to the bottom…

.

.

And we had intermittent washouts. Which is exactly what we had before.

It’s maddening.

.

.

In case you’re wondering, it’s three feet in that spot. In some places it’s three and a half. Won’t that be fun to mow…

.

.

Assuming we can ever get grass to grow there again.

Sigh…

😫
