Making progress

Today was a very productive day. Thankfully the past week has been so warm that almost all of the 2 feet of snow that came down just before Christmas has melted. Jake & I worked very hard the past 2 days beginning the long cleanup process of my property.

This big pile of branches was part of what we accomplished.

It used to all be here in my front yard & rock garden
and here in my sun garden. Its so nice to see the ground again and I'm so glad the snow melted so I didn't have to wait till spring to begin cleanup.
This is whats left of the garden at the end of my driveway. The telephone pole on the left was falling down (that's the top half of it on my lawn) and when they put the new pole in next to it they must have had to dig very deep and that pile of dirt & large rocks ended up on top of my garden : ( I'm hoping after I move the dirt & rocks away that maybe my garden will survive....but I'm thinking it may be re-arranged a bit
These are the larger pieces of wood from my front yard that still need to be cut up for burning next year.

And there is still so much to be done yet.....but we're making progress
