Yard Work Part I

Our first major project for the new house is cleaning up the yard.  It hasn't been cared for in a long time and has become an overgrown forest.  Two weekends ago we spent 4 hours working on the front of the house.  This weekend with the help of family we spent another 4 hours and were able to get a portion of the front side yard done.  At this rate, we are still going to be cleaning out limbs and brush in the fall.

Here is the progress we made this weekend.  Before we worked on it we coudn't see that fence and barely could see the neighbor's house beyond.

The left side of the picture is the weeds and brush that still needs to be cleaned up, the right is after 4 hours of work.

And here is all of our hardwork bundled up at the curb, about 20 bundles.
