I started clearing Winter debris from flower beds, this morning [View all]

The weather is perfect, sunny and heading towards 70. Unfortunately, tomorrow will be in the 40's and rainy and not much improvement in the 10 day forecast.

I managed to stuff full 2 yard waste bags and am considering doing more, but since yard waste collection doesn't start until April, I'm going to pace myself.

Later I'm going to take a 'tour of the estate', as my dad used to say. I see a lot of smallish limbs on the ground in the back lot AND a couple sections of the fence needs repairing. I should just take the whole thing down and turn the posts into raised garden beds. Something to think about, anyway. Meanwhile I'll try to figure out a way to do a temporary, aesthetic repair.

I know it's not quite Spring, but I LOVE Springish days like this.
