Yard Work

 All the rain meant that all sorts of things sprouted on our driveway. As Gerald is POA president, Steve Hampton graded our driveway along with the roads. But after he was finished, we got so much rain that our driveway was starting to look like our meadow. So Gerald got the idea to hook up a piece of chain link fence to the back of the truck to clear it. It worked, sort of.
 Just two years after we had the "amazing brush eating machine" clear away the scrub oak around our house, it had all grown back. So Gerald went out with his chipper to clear away the worst of it. He also got this log splitter (below) to process the wood from the big oak we lost last winter. It worked great.
