Rowdy, a Bird's Nest, and the Gnome



You may be wondering how this previous scenario came to be.

Well, we have been working on turning our forest into a back yard. It started a few weeks back with the removal of many, many tiny pine trees. . . . But 2 mega-pine trees still remained.


These trees could not be cut down with a hand saw and necessitated the rental of a small electric chainsaw. The best time to rent a chainsaw is in the pouring rain.

It took some hard work on the chainsaw's part, but we managed to take down most of the trees and stumps.



And left us with this incredible firewood pile
It was right as we were attempting to take down the final stump that the chain decided to jump off the saw, leaving one perfect gnome seat.

The rest of the gnome's found a resting place as well. I call this one "sleepy"

And this one "relax-y"

The yard is finally Tree-Free!!!!!!!!!!!! (And, the grass patches are starting to grow together)
