Working in the Wisconsin yard.

Post by Sir Henry » Thu May 05, 2022 7:44 pm

I found an old Woodinville lawn thread and thought I would start one for Ogema.

These Vietnamese pots followed me home today.

That van is still handy.

Working in the Wisconsin yard is definitely an upgrade from working on the Wisconsin snow! :D

Don't know how you fared, but we had an unusually bad winter of downed tree limbs, mostly white pine, thanks to a couple nasty ice storms. Probably the worst spring cleanup in the yard and my trails since we've moved up here. All done, though, and the yard is already starting to green hip and the frogs are singing away, big time. Spring is finally here.

The winter here was mild the problem is it just wouldn’t leave. The low was -29F for a few days. It hovered around zero for several months and when it was time to warm up it didn’t.

I’m hiring three teenage neighbors to do the grunt work. Two sisters and their brother. These are farm kids and know how to work.

I want to sell it and the motor home. The Outback and Transit will fit my needs. I’ve been to a few of the neighbors and they might have a nice $40K summer car in the garage and drive a $2K junker in the winter.

They are three of eight children and live on a 60 cow dairy farm. Each kid works four hours a day with no days off unless a sibling does their chores.
