We spent the morning out at Westover helping with cleanup. Westover's front lawn and bowling green both took a real beating in Hurricane Irene- thank goodness there was little damage to the house itself but the property lost a number of beautiful trees, including a huge old tulip poplar on the front lawn. Again, merciful that it fell away from the house and not towards it.
Eric spent the morning with his chainsaw, lopping off branches and then loading them into a wood chipper that Andrea was operating- it's a many hands makes light work type situation- and we are so lucky that Vake is getting to grow up with the Erda kids enjoying all that Charles City has to offer.
So this week is going to be busy! We've got Labor Day off, so we'll probably say goodbye to summer by hitting the pool on Monday- then on Wednesday we've got our sneak peek of the Belmont Branch of the library, then Thursday we're kicking off the Board year for the Children's Museum, then Friday is Mom's birthday.
Whew. Tired just thinking about it!
