This was the view from our front porch this morning:

(The river peeking out between the trees is the Nith.)

Today was my first day back to work since the move, and Siobhan’s first full day back. We were up at 5am and I was at work by 6:30.

This is not going to be easy to keep up, but it’s entirely worth it.

I cleaned up half of the perimeter of the garage/shop and the dog run today, using our new leaf blower/mulcher/vac.

There are a lot of leaves here.

Siobhan cut the grass today. Two and a half hours on the mower, with a huge grin on her face the entire time.

We also got the clothesline up and put our first few loads of laundry outside to dry. Now that we’re out of the ‘burbs, this included underwear for the first time.

Victory is ours.
