Warm and sunny after a partly cloudy start to the day. I decided it was a\u00a0 good morning for doing some outdoor chores. Several months ago during one of our windy spells a small tree fell over on the cow fence in the back. It just landed on top of the barbed wire but a good portion of it was hanging over into my yard. I cut it off at the fence line so James would not run into it when he starts mowing. And, with all the trees still dormant, I trimmed back some more over hanging limbs along the side property fence line. It’s actually not much of a fence. It’s cow fencing as well and most of it is sagging and rusted. There’s a good 15 feet of natural area from the lawn to the fencing. I try to keep the big limbs and brush cleaned up so at least it looks nice. I now have a pretty good sized brush pile for James to haul off.<\/p>\n
