So I'm setting the last shrub in my mixed hedge, and I look up and down at
it and realize the entire thing should be 15' south of where it is! I have a large acreage, and I was setting a hedge of lilacs, rose of sharon and hydrangea mostly to keep the chickens on my side of the property line. I had lined up the hedge with anther bush, but as I set the shrubs yesterday, I realized that I was cutting off a big section of lawn into useless space.

Next project: Dig up 15 shrubs and move them!

2. My real goal is to have it done before my husband gets back Saturday.
Then I can pretend it was always there!
