Another beautiful Spring day here at the Manor

The good news is that our neighbor had a large red oak cut down that was threatening their house* - and they let us have as much wood as we wanted (about a cord)! The bad news is that I had to haul it. My back and elbow are now officially a disaster area. But with what we already had, I think we might make it through the next two Winters without having to purchase any more.


*By "threatening" I don't mean to say that the tree was making rude noises and gestures or sending anonymous letters, etc., (I tend to be the only one in the neighborhood who does that). But the tree was leaning badly over the neighbor's place and a good wind might have sent it crashing down.
