The weather was good today. I started out by cleaning the guns that I shot yesterday. I took my time, because I just didn't feel like working real hard.
After that I went into the house for lunch and some surfing. About 2 I decided I really ought to do something. So I got out the chainsaw and went to work on the downed branches. I took down the branch by the gate and used the lawnmower to drag it over to the burn barrel. Then I used the chainsaw to cut it up. I stacked the remains up to be burned.
Then I took the chainsaw down to the basketball court and got to work. I just kept working at it. I separated the branches I cut into green ones and dead ones. I'll put the dead ones by the burn barrel.. The green ones will remain on the court.
By 5 o'clock I was tired. I got a lot done, but there's a lot left to do. Just before I finished I noticed that there was a smaller branch (4 inches) that was split. So I cut it down. Suddenly I had a lot more to do. So I quit for today. Ay least I made a real dent in what needs to be done.
I went in and took a shower. I put on nice comfortable sweats when I got out. Just the thing for an evening of TV and surfing.
