My Car Smells Like Wine

May 20, 2008 13:07

I'd like to get some bamboo for the yard, but all of the bamboo I've found, that I like and that likes the semi-shady environment that is the back yard, all run.

I don't want to be perpetually hacking back bamboo.

I've thought about getting a large container to put it in, but large pots are expensive, even at places like 1/2 price pots. Plus they're super heavy.

This weekend I saw that McLendons in Woodinville had wine barrel bottoms for sale. Those are quite large, and not too expensive. I imagine they'll be fairly heavy still, but that's ok.

I picked up two yesterday and they are in the back of my car smelling it up like wine. I don't suspect they'll be unloaded until this coming weekend, so they'll be in there taking up the entire back of my car for the rest of this week.

Now I need to figure a way that lets water drain without letting the bamboo escape...

The more I go to McLendons the more I like it over Home Depot, or Lowes. The employees actually know what they're talking about, so you can actually ask them questions about your project and get more than a slack-jawed shrug of the shoulders.
