This past weekend, Phil and I burned all the scrap lumber and cleaned the area around our house. It took two days and 4 different fires going full steam ahead for at least 6 hrs. each. The time spent was in picking up all the scrap lumber and piling it on the fires. It was hard work , but we enjoyed every minute. In between work, we had a wiener roast for our supper. We sat on a gravel pile and enjoyed it immensely. I am just so grateful to be able to work hard again. This kind of work helps me to get my strength back after being in a cast with a broken leg for so long(Feb15-August). Yes, it was a long,hard,slow healing process.
Phil loves to do manual labor and really enjoyed working. We miss having all the yard work that we had on Court Road. But if I know Phil, he will have this hillside looking fabulous by next year.
As most of you know, we are really cramped in this 1300 sq. ft. cabin. Christmas decor had to be at a minimum. I put up one tree this year instead of five or six. Of course, it is a woodland tree with hunting ornaments. Hope to see all of our friends and family at some point over the holidays.
