eggs & tea

Unable to find any hired help, i went out myself to take out the last remaining guava stump. A half hour of swinging a pickaxe, digging and sweating later, my back hurt and the stump looked unaffected. Another hour the next day of gruesome battle, then finally, on the third day, i got the sucker out.

That clears the way for lots more planting.  Finally, it’s almost starting to look like rows of tea.
