Time to Burn it… Coronavirus Day 25

What to do when you’re “stuck inside?” Why not go out and burn leaves and sticks. Right? And only on one of the hottest days of the year so far. 87 degrees to be exact. And I started a fire. Why? Well… because I’ve been wanting this area cleaned up for over a year and no one else would do it.

I had to watch closely because just off to the right of our picture is a hay baler. I didn’t really want to catch that on fire. And you can see the rake. Didn’t want to catch that on fire either.  See, you have to be careful. If you could see me, I had a rake in one hand (or was it a shovel? I don’t really remember) and the water hose in the other. I was prepared.

Once I got all this burned, I went behind our garage and continued on. Then I started trying to scrape the leaves from around the garage. That was a little more difficult. I’ll have to keep working on that.

Now if I could just get someone to come move this shed I’ve wanted to go away… This coronavirus lockdown crap has given me time to get things done. Luckily I live in the country so I’ve found places outside to take up my time. Plus… I might be losing weight. Bonus!

Wish my husband luck. I keep finding more projects to do… except I’m the one doing them… he’s just offering a little assistance here and there. Like finding me the lighter torch he has so I could start and man the fire.
