Dream in Green Sunday, February 11, 2007 |


In the summer of 2006, i received a cutting of ivy from a relatives yard. This specimen comes from somewhere near Ripon, England, brought to Studley, Kansas by my homesteading ancestors who were English sheep ranchers
( Cottonwood Ranch ). It was then passed to Aurora, Colorado by way of Hays, Kansas.

I do not want it in my yard, but I think I have found a solution. With my junk resources, I probably will make this a bit more interesting, but it serves as inspiration.
