Shed Razing - To LTF
The backyard is open, now. It only took a couple of hours to pull down the shed. The weather was perfect. I don't think it got above 80ยบ F. All afternoon a gusty wind sung in our several stands of adolescent elms which are going to be barbered back, soon. This type of elm, colloquially called "piss elm", is a nuisance on the order of thistle weeds. The sky was the same Earl Scheib blue as one of MCF's T-shirts. Everyone was in a good mood. We (including my mother, who said, several times throughout the day, "Now, where did the shed go?" and "Now, just what is it you folks are doing?") wandered all over the property, redesigning the landscaping out loud.
