A Bit Chilly
It was a bit chilly, but it sure made picking up branches easy. I tend to be quite hot blooded and can sweat just like my dad . . . a lot.
Last year we spent a fair amount in brush killer that needed to be sprayed on. It might be a bit too early to see if we had some positive carry-over. I sure hope so. The blue barn acre cleaned up well last year. It is the south lot line that remains a challenge. All of the rotting railroad ties wouldn’t be so bad, if there were not weeds growing up and around.
Yesterday our propane brush killer came via Amazon. It has its own flint and a 10′ hose to use from the propane tank. Our Fleet Farm four wheel trailer will be used to secure the 20 gallon propane tank with bungie cords. The tank has yet to be purchased from our Fleet Farm. With a hand sprayer, you need to be almost on top of the brush and weeds to give them a cover. Time will tell after things have dried up a bit after this well-needed rain.
We had picked up a crock-pot tray at Walmart last week. A good cut of beef, complete with carrots and potatoes. Kevin and Kersten had brought us one at Christmas. It was tasty down to the last bit of the beef that I used in some homemade soup.
When I came in from the outside, the aroma of the crock-pot doing its things was . . . bring it on.
I have just a bit of time to visit my cherry red bedroom porch chair.
With that I take my leave. ♥
