Random 3-year old girl, walking down the road with her parents: “What are you playing?”
Me: “Pick-up sticks!”
Both of us: laugh uproariously at our joke.
Parents, walking away: “Now you know we can’t do that at home. . .”
The truck makes an excellent wheelbarrow. I brought three loads (this is number two, when I realized I should be documenting this) down to the lower driveway. Next week, pictures of fire!
The tree in the picture below is part of next week’s work . A 40′ spruce broke right at it’s middle and the top corkscrewed itself far enough into the ground that I won’t be able to move the trunk till the thaw runs a little deeper.
