Wednesday, March 11 On Tuesday, after a day of picking up hickory nuts, putting them in a wheelbarrow, and pushing the filled wheelbarrow a bit uphill to the woodlot behind our house, Cerwin said it was time to get a trailer to pull behind his lawnmower for this kind of lawncare.

We knew our Zuck great grandchildren were playing in the snow one afternoon early last week as their mom (Abby) and grammy (Diane) visited in our kitchen, but, because Diane’s car and Abby’s van were between us and the snowmen, I did not see these until the Zuck’s went home and Diane left to go […]
