GETTING DOWN AND DIRTY

We had the privilege of helping out a friend today with his Eagle Scout project.  He has worked really hard, putting in many hours, to clean up a small cemetery located in his town.  The whole place was overgrown with noxious weeds and trees.  We spent a lot of time digging the roots out of the ground so that they wouldn't grow back.  And then we covered the area with mulch hoping to slow the growth. 

I love playing with Mother Nature.

Good work, and so much for your pedicure! A nice foot soak will feel great, I am sure. I just came in from helping clean our street today--9:30 to almost 1:00. It looks great!

NICE! You guys are the nicest family...your neighbors are lucky to have your help.
Love the toes. That's what mine currently look like.
I love yard work in flip flops :-)
