Raking and Seeding

Lots of raking.

We want to make a multi level perennial garden here in the future :) For now hoping for wild flowers.

We spent one night up at the lake.  On Sat morning I went to Bloomer and went to some garage sales with Josh and Ellie.  Craig stayed busy raking leaves from the front bay of the lot.  This was quite a task as they probably have never been raked since this was used as a fishing camp.  After many hours of raking, mulching, and dumping leaves, he seeded the area with some grass seed.  Then I raked the side area and added some wild flower seed on that.  We have our fingers crossed some of this will come up.  Rain and Sunshine please come!  In that order :)

Josh and Ellie were our first fishing guests on Friday evening.  He snagged a few small ones and knows there are definitely some biters out there! :)  We enjoyed a nice boat ride on Sat afternoon before heading home too.  We even saw a muskrat swim across the bay.  We have seen deer by the road the last 3 times we have camped on the land.  They do not seem very timid and it is so fun to watch them.

Hopefully the perc test will be done this week and the wood limbs chipped.  We have staked out an area for the house so we are anxious to get the driveway in and the grading and filling done so it will finally look like a building site.  Weekends go fast and the cleaning up process seems unending. :)
