No monsoons yet this summer, but rain is in the forecast. Migration is a bit slow so far. Things going good, considering what the future holds. (It's not like we're going to get younger. LOL)
A willow tree by one of our ponds has a tendency for huge limbs to break from it and block the alley. My husband called me, while I was at the oasis watering yesterday, that it happened again.
So early this morning he cut the parts blocking the alley while I loaded them into his pickup and a trailer. He's 82, to my 84, and probably in worse shape than I am. So he'd cut a branch or two, then sit while I did the loading. Same system we've had for 20 years, but getting harder.
We got it done. Alley is open. Luckily, after a nap, I was good to go again.

The city isn't accepting brush at this time so we have to find a place to dump it. I'd be happy to make another brush pile near the ponds but husband won't agree to it.
