Family makes it sooooo fun!

A few projects

 We had the trees to the west thinned while we were there.  

 View of the mountains is amazing now.

Then Bruce did a little thinning of his own.  Actually he just cut down one tree that didn't have any branches until way at the top.

 We laid down weed barrier and then spread stones around the house .

 These pictures show our present "lawn."  

We spread some seed, hoping to see some changes next spring.

And finally, we hung a few things to make the walls home-y.
