and the Saturday pictures just kept getting better and better ...
today it was leaf raking, leaf stuffing and leaf burning. Mom and I filled two large construction bags from the front yard and after Jean arrived -- we stuffed the back of my truck -- rolled the cover closed and kept shoving the damn things in ... then we ( she ) had the brilliant idea to burn 'em .. so we raked to the gravel and burned for 2 1/2 hours .. just kept feeding the fire. It was so calm the smoke rose straight up for most of it ...
after we started to burn -- the rest of the neighborhood started to burn -- we, Clampett's know how to lead the pack astray .. but the job got done ... I managed to wipe down a few more windows too.
bed is stripped, patio cushions indoors -- more vac'ing, because I was born with that gizmo attached to me ..
now attacking laundry - the never ending piles of laundry ...
and tomorrow it is back to the working world ...
with shorter hair
and a few new aches ...
