This is the grinder for all everything that comes in. They grind up the trees into wood chips that people can take for free.

This is Marshmallow, our dog. He is out front right now to enjoy all of the visitors. By the way, he came with that name from the SPCA, and it suits him really good.

We hired some of the members of the youth group to help us move the pea stone and mulch. They are raising money for a big event that is coming up this summer. They worked about 2 1/2 hours. They did a great job. Needless to say, our backs really appreciated their help, that would have taken us half a day to do it alone.
