Bamboo in the snow
Several years ago here in Northeast Georgia, my neighbor through the woods planted bamboo and river cane behind his house. Those plants have now spread all the way through the woods to the edge of the one-lane road on which I live. I dislike having to hack them down when they lean over the road,…
