We made a double dump run and when I say the sellers left us a ton of stuff, I mean they literally left us a ton of stuff - and we paid for it! We have officially dropped off and paid for over 2000 pounds of garbage to be recycled - with a total of four trips spanning from last fall until now. There were two huge triple picture windows and several doors and a stove, tv and pipes and egg crates full of wood. And believe me when I tell you they were using this wood, with hinges and nails and screws, as wood to burn in the fireplace. We cleaned up the remnants of all that wouldn't burn when we cleaned the floor of the fireplace. And we're not really done...we could make one more trip with the odds and ends, but a nice bon fire and a couple of things for our local garbage pickers and the place will be officially trash free! Can't wait.

Lastly, Carlo mowed the front lawn - which is a fraction of what needed to be cut and we trimmed and just did some sprucing up before heading home. It was a great weekend and a lot was accomplished.

Now where's my calendar???? I need to get in touch with the crew!!!! xoxo
