School of the bigger hammer

I love it when sometimes, all that's needed to get the job done...is a bigger hammer. This guy could use Billy Llewellyn's 10 lb. maul, named Merle. Shot in Lunenburg Feb. 24th.

Now that's my kind of lawn!

I love all the crocuses and daffodils popping up in lawns around the county. Less grass, more perennials..I like it!

Just around the corner

Next thing you know, there will be leaves EVERYWHERE, can't wait! Spotted these red maple buds last Friday...
