The bushes are OUT OF CONTROL!
So I don my Stihl shirt and pull out my Black and Decker hedgetrimmer.
I start going to town!
A little trim here and there…
Bes is busy working up in the front yard.
I’m still taming the bushes but there is much improvement.
When our neighbor Charlie sees us working outside, he comes over to help with a small electric Craftsman chainsaw. How I long for my own chainsaw! My Stihl folks send me calendars and shirts but never a chainsaw.
Bes tames some wild vines up front. She drags the very long vines down the street.
It may not look like much but the bushes are getting better!
We have lots of trash to show for it. We go to the other neighbor, another Charlie, and borrow his wheelbarrow.
After a day of yard work, we tackle one last project – assembling a cabinet for the bathroom.
After much experimentation, I finally hang the cabinet correctly. I’ve never installed something in wood paneling so it is a very challenging experience but I succeed!
I love eggnog everything – even froyo!
Mark comes to take the second XT home to be with it’s brother in Sparta. Asta la pasta dirt bikes!
A trip to the local grocery store proves to be more exciting as there are police everywhere! What always catches my eye is these CMPD DRZ 400′s. Maybe I should be a police person as long as I don’t have to ride on any curbs, logs, rocks, sand, gravel, sticks, or anything that could be remotely difficult! Hmm… maybe it’s better that Mark has the XT’s now : )

I’m surprised there is any bush left after you got done with it, the last bushes you trimmed back there didn’t fair quite as well. The officers on the DRZs make me jealous every time they roll through the parking lot here at work, if they don’t love their jobs then something is very wrong.
