Dumpster #5 and A Few Dead Bushes

We had our fifth and final dumpster delivered last Friday night.  Every time we pulled up to the house we had to look at our driveway piled up with assorted junk...a pile of wood Lee accumulated in finishing up all of the structural repairs, a truck bed full of galvanized metal from the old wood burning stove, and way too many soggy bags full of yard waste.  We eventually got sick of looking at it and decided that since we finally had a break from all of the rain we should hurry up and get this out of the way.









In the process of cleaning all of this stuff up, we rediscovered my little bench that I built last fall.  I figured since we were taking down two fireplaces we should at least use the bricks to create some easy seating out front until this whole process is over with!

^ I guess I have some more leaves to bag ^

After loading the dumpster we decided to try and pull up 3 dead bushes along our side yard with Lee's Jeep.  Sure enough, it worked like a charm!  Using a toe strap:


Lee wrapped it around the base of the bush(s), attached it to the hitch on his Jeep...

...and pulled 'em on out!
