Jim Rodman continued to clean around the raspberry bushes even through the rain. Fortunately the rain was not constant, and he was soon joined by Marcia in the endeavor. Sharron Etheredge and Donna moved the mulch from around the bases of the roses –Donna even has bloody gloves to prove it!—while Ray Etheredge pruned the climbing rose on the trellis. The next step is to prune the bushes, though whether it is warm enough to prune is arguable.
