Clearing the apple tree
This weekend we cleaned up more of the yard.
Bill's stump removal service
Burning the brush
Stumps in the Hawthorns
This weekend Erik will be coming down with me to help with taking down the rest of the cedar trees and mulching them.
We also went to the burning goat day at our friend Cheri’s house.
A good time was had by all. We followed some other friend home to take a look at some glass that she wants Bill to take to PSG this year. Her father was a glass blower and has made some beautiful things. Unfortunately, he has had an accident and can no longer blow glass. She has boxes and boxes of this stuff – I didn’t take pictures yet since they are not mine to sell. But perhaps we will get some pictures of the booth set up this year at PSG to share and you can see some of this amazing work.
Please tell me you danced around the burning goat in a circle and chanted strange sounding things like in the movie "The Secret Garden"! By the way, who made the goat? It looked well done, no pun intended! lol!
ReplyDeleteWell no, we didn't really do much except light it on fire and then take pictures. I ooohed and ahhhed as well as several others but yeah - no ritual, no chanting, lots of eating and socializing though - and a few did drink some beer - that's about it though.
ReplyDeleteOur hostess Cheri made the goat. She used some plywood she had on hand and a bale of straw - very high tech you know! ;)
