Sheltiedave Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 We have a lot of deadfall branches from our 60+ year old pin oaks, the dam gum ball trees, and the maple saplings that needed cutting, so I got busy. Junior chain sawed about 80 feet of fence line clear, we made a Viking pyre, and a separate feed pile, and I lit the 4ft tall pile with some leaves tucked in the belly of the stack. The ground was soaking wet, so I could be fairly aggressive feeding the burn. We ended up getting rid of about four truck beds in two hours, and with the brisk winds everything burned completely. Two more weekends like yesterday, and the yard will be in great shape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBFan Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I finally finished shoveling and moving the large gravel pile in my driveway. I rewarded myself with hours of fishing in my pond. The wife deep cleaned the house and organized the bedrooms and closets. Painting the house is the next project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old guy Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I started doing taxes, always a lot work, not all of it happy work. Yes I know the IRS does not require filing or payment of the 1st estimate until July 15th, but you have to pay the 2nd estimate on June 15th. Your IRS at work, go figure. On top of that I have not seen any announcements by MO DOR saying they are deferring the MO filing date to July 15th. I will be filing MO taxes by April 15. So like it or not it is tax time. Have a happy 2 weeks of numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know it is a crazy journey when you finish it thinking the guy that Tony Montana is partially based on and the guy that interviewed a President about the war on drugs while high on crack are pretty good people all things considered.

Billikenbooster Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 My wife and I washed all the windows in the house inside and out, removed and brushed the screens, scrubbed sills. It is a pleasure if I’m stuck here in the house all day to look out through clean windows, especially in my sun room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
