Slice of Life 2020 Day 29 picking up sticks

An afternoon to pick up sticks

Not the plastic kind in a tube

The ones under huge oak trees

That fell from too many windy days and nights.

It’s preparation for the time to begin mowing

Hopefully tomorrow, if it doesn’t rain tonight.

Then the yard will look presentable to passers by.

Neighbors honk at us as they head to the grocery store

We straighten up and wave at them.

That’s as close as we can get.

I wished for someone to turn in our drive.

But with social distancing it won’t happen.

Tomorrow maybe we can burn the sticks.

Or burn then in the fire pit in the evening.

And have a night out!
