Chopped

Spring/Summer/What Have You has finally come to the North Country! The snow has melted and it is gone for the foreseeable future (knock on wood). With the melted snow comes an unearthing of speedy growing grass, the pile of wood we've had in our backyard since a tree fell down during a winter storm, and, of course, WARM WEATHER!

It was 80 degrees out today and pure bliss. It, actually, has been around 75 degrees for the past week or so, and like every other resident of this area, we've been taking advantage of it. Today's festivities included the chopping of wood into acceptable fire pit sizes, moving said wood, and just trying to pick up some color. That last bit is much easier said than done, but my pink arms will beg to differ.

In all seriousness, I didn't have any involvement with manual labor. I left that bit to James, who, for some reason, gets enjoyment out of the desecration of trees or branches and such. So, instead, I was a paparazzi who may or may not have been rolling around in the grass. It was magnificent, for the record.
