Delay after delay after delay (and a bit of “I don’t have the energy for this”), this evening, I finally got back to the old wood pile area. It’s finished.

It’s been a while, but I managed to get a bit of progress on cleaning up the old wood pile. This is almost how it looked when I left off last time. I didn’t realize I’d neglected taking a picture after we shifted the doghouse aside and I took away the pallet it was on. … Continue reading Clean up: the old wood pile – a bit of progress
I was able to get about an hour of clean up in the old wood pile area. I made sure to check the temperature before I headed out, and it was only 22C. Thank God it wasn’t any hotter, because even that felt way too hot. Y’know, I’ve always wanted to travel, and go vacation … Continue reading Clean up: old wood pile, progress
Today has been a very unproductive day. I felt exhausted all day, to the point of falling asleep at the computer. I even tried to nap, but that was a failure. Mostly because I’m a suck, and I didn’t have the heart to move the sleeping pile of cats on my bed. 😀 It was … Continue reading Clean up: old wood pile progress

Here is how it’s been progressing since I started on the area, if you want to look at earlier photos. … Continue reading Clean up: old wood pile, today’s progress
I didn’t get as much done cleaning up in the old wood pile as I’d hoped, but a little is better than none! This is most of the area I focused on today. I got more old pallets out, and a bit more rotten wood. For the most part, it’s too rotten to even pick … Continue reading Clean Up: old wood pile area, a bit of progress

Of course, by the time I actually got out there, it had warmed up considerably. 😀 It was nice, working in the shade, though. With the way things have been … Continue reading Clean up: old wood pile, progress
This morning, thanks to cooler temperatures that I was able to take advantage of, I was able to finally get back to cleaning up around the east perimeter of the spruce grove. It was only about an hour and a half before I had to get out of the heat, but I think some good … Continue reading Clean Up: spruce grove perimeter, starting on the old wood pile
Today, my goal was to board up at least one of the broken windows in our old pump shack. Which was not an easy job. (Photo heavy post ahead!) You see, in order to fix the window, I needed to be able to reach the window. In order to reach the window, I had to … Continue reading Clean Up and Winterizing: fixing the pump shack window
One of the things I’ve been wanting to get done in the outer yard, was to clear some trees from what used to be a chicken coop, when I was a kid. Getting things done in the outer yard has now been pushed back another year, but the last wind storm we had left more … Continue reading Winterizing: clearing an old roof
