Back on February 10, I took the opportunity on a fairly nice day to clean out the drainage ditch on the south side. I have to do this every year as the weeds/wildflowers that grow there are very tall. Before and after pics:
Yesterday, I cut down a tree limb from the east side. It has bugged me for a long time as it just sticks straight out from the tree line, parallel to the ground, about 12' up. I thought they were going to take care of it when I had the tree work done fall of 2022, but I had been mistaken. How long it is - the shed is 14' long
After cutting up the limb, I gathered all the brush from cleaning out the drainage ditch, a stack of lily stalks I had pulled in the fall, windfall branches etc and loaded up the truck. Took it all to the brush pile at the dump. I was just happy as heck that the ground at the dump was still pretty solid and not a mud run.
Not really exciting stuff, but kept me busy for a while.
Nice, for a day's work. I like your drop cloth - and the shed is looking good.

That drop cloth is part of the old portable garage cover. It is like a super thick tarp. It's beat, has some small holes, but is really thick and strong. Once I get the brush that is wedged against the roof of the truck out, I can just pull the tarp out and everything comes with it. then I yank the tarp out from underneath, roll it up, stuff it behind the driver's seat and it is ready for next time.
