I had to have a procedure done at the hospital yesterday, just as a follow up from another procedure.  Isn't that the way it goes as we get older?  Everything looks good but it occupied a lot of the day.  

Jim did get a little time to finish bending the steel for the wine rack...

He has been working on the getting the newer cabinet ready to go in the pole barn.  He's going to use this to store car/machine parts and fluids.

Because there are just a few containers of fluids!

He also made two Craigslist sales and was able to take care of both of them at the same time in the late afternoon - nice when that works out.

Today, I spent all morning running errands and after lunch, we decided to go play outside in the woods.  There were downed trees in this side area that we wanted to clean up...  

Cutting this trunk into pieces...

Two trees had fallen different directions so we wanted to get them cleaned up...

Cutting the tree...

Dragging it out...

This area looks so much better now...

Plus, we accumulated quite a few more piles for chipping...

These trees also came down at some point so we worked on dragging some branches out.  Jim needs to sharpen the chain on his bigger chainsaw before we tackle these trunks...
