Dig Them Weeds

Digging up all of the Russian Thistle ("tumbleweeds") from around our property is hard enough (although Lisa did it). What's harder is finding some way to get rid of them. Fortunately, after the pile of them sat around for a few days, they were dry enough that I could squish most of them into our refuse bin, but it helped that we didn't have a lot of other trash this week.
