Captain Nelson (Daniel) came over last night and gave us his official assessment of our backyard, as burn season is only going for about another 5 weeks.  

Afterwards, we (Paul, Jessica, Daniel & I) sat outside under the gazebo and chatting while the kids picked weeds and brought them to us as gifts. 

Tonight, Paul & I are going to start doing even more in the back.  I had pulled some weeds, but only about 20% of what is out there.   While dinner is cooking, we’ll go do about 15 minutes more, and then start the burning process next weekend probably.   If we spend about 15-20 minutes every day, we should get it all cleared up fairly soon.
