I need to schedule a major garden clean up over the Winter. Get it all done before the weather heats up again. I know I have several months but want to get on it.

It's been on my mind with the rain storms of late. We had a real nice day so I got out and trimmed back some apple tree branches. Now I need to remember to get the trash cans out with the yard waste for pick up in the morning.
