Tumbleweeds

This area is notorious for tumbleweeds. Trouble is, there is always a burn ban on. What to do? A lady who came to look at the house gave me an idea. She said her grandson rakes them away from the trees or fence line and then runs the bush hog over them a few times. I tried it and it works great. When you cant burn its either this or have the ugly tumbleweeds overtaking your place. I am hiring one of the Sunday school classes to rake the tumbleweeds away from the trees so I can mow over them. In the mean time the girls and I spend an hour or so whenever it isn't windy and not too cold doing some. Not windy is not often though.
I will try to remember to take a before and after pix if I can remember.
