Pile o' branches

A few weekends ago, I cleared a side strip of the property, to facilitate the water folks' digging the trench for the water supply from the water mains (along the footpath) to the house.

Since then, I've been meaning to move the pile to its proper resting place (further back on our property), but one thing or another has trumped it. Today, I finally moved it. Thought I'd take a souvenier pic of the pile.

(The pile's actually larger than this: it streches out to the back, as well.) ;)

I didn't **completely** manage to remove it all. But it's now about one-third the size -- so, good progress.

The unintended advantage of waiting three(?) weeks to move the branches is that they've largely dried by now. Much less water content -- so **much** lighter! Tied ropes around the bundles, and carried like a European peasant.
