Been doing a lot of 'little things' that are leading up to a big thing. I've been clearing a lot of the brush on the sides of the property line, and I've 'discovered' (I kinda figured it was there, but it was surprising to see the condition.) of a path that goes from the shed in the back up to the back porch area.
Over last week and this past weekend I cleared the path and cut/hacked and shoveled vines/trees/bushes that had taken it over. There is still work to be done and I hope to have 'before/after' pictures up shortly.
I've also made some decisions and removed a mulberry? tree from the far back yard that was entangled w/the grape vines, it doesn't belong where it was, and I want to clear that small area up and make it into a peaceful 'remote' place to sit and be surrounded by nature. Funny how cutting a tree down will lead to that.
I went and bought some 4x4's and 2x4's and built a wood rack using a design that Dave Sabat uses in his backyard. Felt good getting it setup so I can finally finish moving the wood from its 'pile' and into an organized area, especially in preps for wintertime. I do NOT want to be crawling all over the backyard in potentially icy/snowy conditions trying to load wood every few hours.
Have a few more things I've purchased, another set of drapery rods for the dining room that will match the other set I have, some blackout film to put on the windows in the media room to cut down on the light coming in (along with the shear red/velour drapes I hung a few weeks ago) should make a big difference (and look FANTASTIC.)
