Brush Pile

Boy Howdy!

We finally got a break in the stormy weather, and it sure feels good!

Monday we had our weekly barbecue outside for the first time in a long time. Kelly grilled steaks and it was actually comfortable sitting out on JC's deck, until the sun got behind the old growth fir and hemlock trees on the south side of his house.

Yesterday Carol and I got some yard work done, trying to clean up the mess the winter storms left behind. It's kind of cloudy this morning but the forecast looks good through the weekend. Maybe now we can accomplish some of the outside projects that have been on hold because of the crappy weather. We have a huge amount of fallen tree limbs and knocked down bushes to cut up and burn. It should make a heck of a bonfire!

Carol finally licked the bad cold she's been fighting for two weeks, (with the help of an expensive prescription - seven pills for $97.00!) She started back on duty this morning at 6 and popped a call at 7:15 and another around 10. Then she went down to the fire station to work out on their exercise equipment; I think she's feeling better!
