So good to see you again, Rick, and you, too, David.

Rick and I were compost friends on another site. My husband, Jack, worked 15 hours (over 3 days) making two new bins of compost recently and it looks wonderful, as usual. We have 6 bins he made, two are now filled.

At the end of the "old bins" there's a Jackmanii clematis, which is constantly fed by the compost bin behind it. Each summer I have to cut that clematis back twice by about 12'. It must enjoy the constant food.
