Miscl. pix

Here's a few pix of things I'd mentioned before, I think.



The dining room ceiling, removed on the recent work day.

Progress on replacing the fascia on the west side of the barn. I hope to get back to this next week after I make a trip to NJ to pick up some antiques from my sister.

Now that the barn stairs are in, I'm really hoping to get the storage room in the barn fixed up pronto.

I got back from a church retreat this afternoon about 4:30 and popped over to WH and spent a VERY enjoyable two or three hours mowing around the property this afternoon. It was so much fun to wheel that tractor around and get stuff done!

A few days ago I had cut down a willow tree which had grown up in the septic drain field. Today I was able to drag it over to the burn pile with the tractor and cut it up a bit more so it wasn't flopping outside my "burn zone." What is so satisfying about dragging around half a tree? I don't know, but it does give a good feeling of accomplishment.

I flooded my gas powered chain saw when I was trying to start it, so I hauled out the Alligator again. It made short work (pun intended) of that willow, let me tell you. The more I use it, the more I like it.

Off to shower and bed. I run the AV at church tomorrow morning, so I have to be up and out early.

Cheerz!

Doug
