Grab my salt scrub and lather it onto my arms.

OH - PAIN, ouch, ouch. The juniper (remember the juniper) has left its
usual
gift of million of little cuts....
Salt - open cuts, WHAT WAS I THINKING!

Achy-waa-waa! I can feel that from here! ) Sounds like the day I
did battle with those damned multiflora roses from hell......my legs
looked like I'd gone through a meat grinder. Felt like it, too (



Personally, I think the juniper might be worse then the rose. I've battled
both, but the you can see where to place the pruners with the rose.

Not to quibble, Cheryl, but have you ever tangled with a 30' diameter,
15' tall multiflora rose that's twining itself into a maple tree? The
upper branches were at least 30' long crawling up through the foliage.
Trust me, you may be able to see where to put the pruner, but you have
no idea where the branch is going to whip you as it comes down (

Ok - I've only tackled much smaller ones. Shall I pass the salt scrub?

And the never ending supply of blackberries/brambles. Tasty berries, but
hell on you the rest of the time.
