Hoping to get a lot more done. Now I just have to figure out a way to keep mosquitoes away. Would love to put up a Martin pole.

Then turned around Friday and helped hubby cut wood, and then we brought it home and cut some more. Blocked and stacked until we can get it split. Yep we have a wood spliter. Bought one for hubby 2 years ago. He is getting to old to do it by hand. But Now the Wednesday and the wind is howling so get to stay in the house.
