Spring clean-up

Now with warm temps around 60 degrees F, I can work in the yard. First, I cut down my prairie flowers and grasses and burned the cut tops in the empty vegetable garden and burned the stubble of the cut native grass clumps. Then I shredded up some tree and shrubs branches, some from last year and some from pruning this season.

In se PA there were several days of dry warm weather, so all snow is gone. Now a few days of cold rain have come. I have 2 wheelbarrows. That cheap one from an Ace Hardware has its rod between the wheels too short and it always falls out, though I like its light wt.

Nice to get outside and see the snow isn't as prominent!

(Looks like you need to do a little repair job on the wheelbarrow.)

Wow, you are lucky to get all of this done. I'm in NE PA, it is too wet to do anything. But the warmer weather sure is nice. Still have a little snow on the ground. But it is melting. Yeah!! I'm still having fun starting my seeds, getting ready to fire up my greenhouse.

Was very happy to see the warm spell. Too wet here also, but did manage to do some clean up, our Birch sheds alot. But I got my seeds in. Looking forward to 60 degrees by weeks end.
