Farm Girl Fun

Today was a nice sunny, warm, (but windy) day, so Harold and I worked outside trying to clean up the garden and yard from the winter.  We aren't used to hard work after the long winter, so we just about wore ourselves out!  We need to get in shape!   I cleaned up the garden from the big vegetation and made several piles for burning like this:
On a calm evening, we will burn these piles in the garden. 
Then I filled up the back of the pick-up with stuff and garden junk:
A little bit of everything to haul somewhere.......
Then, since "selfies" are all the rage now, this tired old gal decided to take a selfie of her grungy self:
Don't laugh too hard - I was overheated and tired!
I always wear a straw hat and this one is new.   I wore my old one out.   However, I bought a really fancy straw hat last weekend at a thrift shop in Becker MN to wear while cutting grass with my new mower:
My stylish new garden/yard hat!

That ought to scare all the pests away. Even out of the twp. :-) However, I think it will look good on you and you will look good on your new lawn tractor. Life just don't get better'n that.

I hope Harold takes a picture of you mowing in the flower hat!
