Tidying Up

This past weekend was spent picking up fallen branches and taking down some dead trees. The largest trees will be split for firewood. The rest of the branches were piled up for a Fall bonfire at some point. We will need rain before that happens.
We also cleaned out the barn, repaired a fence one of the horses destroyed and dismantled the cattle head gate that had not been used in years. (Never needed it again after the bull chased my husband into the chicken pen and we sold him!) The new fence section was boarded for extra stability. We painted the boards black. Once done with that, I thought we should touch up some of the barn trim. Well, you can't just touch up old paint and before we knew it we were involved way more that we had intended! About half way through this project I was informed by my husband that no where on any of his lists was "paint the barn trim". Oops!
