It has been three weeks again since I have done yard work.

It was way too hot last weekend, and I had just returned from two weeks in Canada.

So, there was Must Do Yard Work to complete today.

I again had a bunch of volunteer trees in my back yard. Hopefully I won’t have any for awhile as I should be home for the next month and I can do regular yard work.

The little trees are home to ladybugs and other insects, but they had to go.

I no sooner got started working with my string trimmer that it ran out of line. I then had to restring the trimmer which can be a bit frustrating. Good thing I have some mechanical ability 🙂

The front and back yard had to be mowed and edged. After these tasks were done I looked to see what needed to be done next.

It was a very windy day today and this made it really obvious that one of my trees was getting too close to the neighbors roof. I had to do a bit of tree trimming.

I soon had branches all over the place and had a lot of cleanup to do.

I moved all the branches along the side of the house and will have to work later to get them into the yard waste container. I was too tired by the time I got done.

Still to do is cleaning up my rose bushes. They need a lot of work, especially as the heat has not been too good on them this summer.
