gardening

Today it was comparatively warm, and sunny...cue garden work!!
A shed required its last coat of timber treatment so we grabbed the chance to finish the work!   I painted while The Pirate took an old beagle for a walk around the village.
We both finished at the same time!  
After lunchbreak we inspected a fallen tree that we could have for firewood, with a little help.  That might keep us going until the New Year!!

Then a patio cleared while the Pirate supervised...and the wind got up and the clouds loomed...and we retreated for a cuppa.
The weather turned cold with icy rain- definitely "rain stopped play".

Home to saw and stack firewood in a break in the weather.  Then supper in front of the stove.

We started wandering on the internet, looking for "Possee" , "Epps" , "Saxby","Hubbard" and "Allen".....in one site on tribal pages we found all those,but not the right ones.....they must be related somehow!!

Then we looked at war records....
Looks like we'll be doing a bit more genealogy soon!
