Weekend review: weeding, canning and podcasting
This was a nice weekend to be outdoors, so I spent a lot of it getting the fence lines cleaned up in eventual preparation for a repainting. Still have to figure out a way to clear a line through the woods. A bushog attached to a bobcat is the leading contender. I also spent some…
