clearing up a bit

being outside

is fun!

there is a LOT to do on a farm 

that was forgotten and neglected for years 

Much to do to reclaim the Land

and prepare it for growing things

and sustaining life 

lots of discerning on which trees to keep

and which to get rid of 

with so many

we will start with dead trees

and diseased trees that don't seem like they will recover 

we have a problem with the eastern tent Caterpillar

and 

wonder if it attacked this tree in the last few years 

either way,

this tree is dead

and in a spot that sure would be nice to put a picnic table..

out of these trees the only one that looks good

is the one on the FAR right

all the others trees in the forefront will go.. 

they are intertwined with barbed wire

and with them gone

and a little brush hogging later

this should be a beautiful view 

getting Peggy the Pick-up truck in position

they will cut down the tree and haul it away to 

the burn/mulching area 

C.S. has the ropes

and he and his Papa

Machine Man 

are ready to attack the problem area

and more on THIS exciting endeavor..

later
