Irene Clean-Up

Our house and electricity made it through pretty well. Our beautiful backyard full of trees did not fair as well. When we began the clean-up process it was really odd to see some fallen branches standing straight up in the mud as if they were replanting themselves. Wind can do some odd things.
We began the process of sawing and bundling the sticks as a family but quickly had to ask for help from friends...with chainsaws. (Thanks so much for coming guys!) But here's a few pics of our first clean-up crew...you know...the ones that work for goldfish.

 Duncan waiting for a turn with the saw. Hahaha.

Not sure if he's helping or hindering.
He pulled on that stick under the tree for a while. What determination.
