After the most important task outside my house was done - the fence - the real yard work was finalized... The jungle I bought last summer had to go so I could see and walk through my yard.
... and this was all done within 4 days. My bones hurt, I got blue, purple and green bruises all over my body, skin is scratched all over from the thorns, I am sun-burned and my head still hurts a day after from the crop chopper...

| Rocki still looking at the mess a day before we started chopping the cut off wood. |
 |
| Getting the machine of hell into my yard. |
 |
Chopping, chopping, chopping....
This is my friend Helmut, but mostly I stood on the machine and Helmut getting the sticks ready for me.
We needed 20 liters of gas within 4 days of running this thing as long as it was daylight. |
 |
| Getting better on top, but not started further down... |
 |
| Rocki made a nest looking at the working crew. |
 |
| Before - there are actually surprises under the wood stacks. |
 |
This was after the stack was gone. Sad, but tulips time is almost over anyway.
Welcome back next spring! |
 |
You could sense that there was something build under the old wood and so this littly very old pool suddenly was there.
You can actually see my house from the yard now, and no stacks of old wood any more (at least at the top). |
We actually finalized all wood piles within 4 days, including Sunday and a Holiday. My neighbors hate me now, but hey, that happens once in 50 years :-)
Still some cleanup tasks needed, but now I and especially Rocki can actually use our yard (me at least in a few days when I can walk or lift my arms again :-)
Need to relax now :-)
