Yard Work

The view up Haynes Canyon from our place in High Rolls
We hiked the Grand View Trail this morning so we could get back early to do necessary yard work around our High Rolls property; and there is still more to be done.  I used my Li-ion battery-powered Kobalt string trimmer to do the yard around the house before Dr. K and I had to go up our road to take care of several downed trees that had fallen partially across the roadway.  Tomorrow I'll have to trim weeds on the driveway and part of the road.  I'll do that after we return from a hike in the high mountains.
