Saturday morning was a day for doing things that have been on our to-do lists for weeks. While Aileen handled some holiday cleaning inside the house -- windows/fireplace, etc., Bill handled some items that have been begging to be taken care of for a while -- some since last winter!

Although there aren't any pictures for "before" the gutter cleaning/tree pruning in the front, the first couple of shots depict how it is NOW and preferably how I hope to keep it -- the gutter clear & no trees touching the house.

I did just the opposite in the back. I got some "before" shots, but neglected the "after" shots!
