Weekend Roundup: Spring Cleanup Style

It’s not hard to tell that it’s spring cleanup time around here. To say the weather has been tricky is an understatement. In fact, this time last year we were out and about in t-shirts and shorts...well, not shorts for all of us but you get the idea :) This year we are still seeing temperatures of 5-7 degrees during the day and very little sun. In the fog & drizzle Saturday morning we installed the new clothesline and hung the bird feeder Dewayne & Kelly gave us before it poured, and we took in a great move, Civil War. We decided to buy a chipper that  Wally put together ASAP. Sunday, it was Bowen’s bath time and putting the new chipper to good use tackling the cleanup from the mess the municipality left last fall while shredding trees. It was sunny & cold to start but the rain couldn‘t say away (ha!). It’s disappointing to say the least when there was zero reason for our trees to be destroyed because there is ample drainage in place at the bottom of the ditch/hill. It even feeds from the other side of the road in front of our neighbours’ property and under both of our driveways into our huge ditch. Always feels good to get work done..especially together!

TODAY: It's a laundry, phone calling, cleaning and catching up kind of day. I'm thinking it's a baked ham kind of day too!
