Chestnuts Roasting In An Open Fire

Wednesday was my day to rake and burn.  It was partly cloudy and sweater weather for a while. The sun popped out and the sweater was shed.
We had a chestnut tree rubbing on the roof of the shop and the lean-to.  Been on our list to get it cut since we cleaned those two out buildings.  The day finally came to get it started.
Kubota bucket to the top of the lean-to.  First some repairs had to be made.  Andrew and Hubby knew what they were doing.  So did I.  I stayed on the ground and was the official go-fer. 
Andrew choked up on the hammer handle but he got the job done.  Tin nailed and secured.  
Grape vines and chestnut tree
both had to be trimmed drastically
and they were.
A cleared repaired roof line oughta last a few more years.
Finish work and complete clean up tomorrow.
We'll have fire wood and wood for crafting.
Only a million more jobs to go.
