Fall prep

Cutting_tressIt’s no secret that Fall comes quickly in Michigan. With the leaf duty just weeks away it’s time for us to start preparing what we can now in the house and around the house. Here’s a little list that we’re out to tackle this weekend.

  1. Trim more trees. This morning we hacked at a birch tree and cut down 75% of the cedar tree in the backyard. Our simple theory is that less trees is better for the house.
  2. Put summer stuff away outside. Not a lot to do there, but we need to start moving summer stuff to the back garage and winter stuff to the front garage. Dare I say that I need to get the snow blower ready?
  3. Take out Megan’s window air conditioner.
  4. Install Paul’s new heater.
  5. Start removing summer plants and putting down ground cover.

Fun times, eh? Kristen loves Fall, and while I like it plenty… there is much to do. Winter in Michigan is absolutely inevitable.
