I was excited for today because Becca and Reilly came over this afternoon for the first time. We had a blast!! I gave them a tour and showed them all of my favorite spots (and there are a lot of them!). Reilly's favorite parts were the "princess bridge" (love it) and the waterfall. We climbed down to the creek and explored awhile. We took a nice long hike up the pine tree forest and the water tower. This was adventurous because we explored some new trails. Rei and I used a stick to forge through the Spider webs (Ew!). What a great day to just enjoy the property!!
After they left, Roge took down some heavy brush by the ginko and maple. He even offered to teach me how to use the chainsaw...although it is SO heavy and strong that I declined (definitely safest for all!). Then as I cleaned up the brush and pulled roots, he worked on hauling out stumps. There are so many of them!!
All this heavy labor came to a screeching halt as huge dark clouds started rolling in. We quickly cleaned up and headed out. The rain is welcomed as it will help keep the dust down. It was a fabulously laid back day!!! Here are some pics...
