"Growing Hearts"
This vine is growing ALL OVER the backyard. We have to pull it out of the trees and off of other plants. It has a resilience much like that of the cockroach. Its only redeeming quality is that it provides privacy for "natural" nights in the hot tub.
This evening as I was photographing it, I noticed that many of its leaves are heart-shaped. It is hard to despise something with little hearts all over it. I have a little more appreciation for it now. I'll try to see it as something more than a perpetual nuisance.
