Spring cleaning coming up

As the weather starts to turn progressively warmer, and the days get progressively longer, I find myself itching to get outside and spring clean the yard.  We’ve had a few trees die over the winter, and a few of the taller trees lost their tops due to high winds, so the yard is pretty sad looking right now.  I’m planning to recruit a couple of neighborhood kids to come over and help pick up the sticks and limbs over the next couple of weekends.  I’m going to pile them all up together on a brush pile and light it up when the spring cleaning is done.  Outdoor fires are illegal around here until after 4pm; I’m guessing it’s because that is when the wind dies down, but it is a pain to have to wait that long in the day – a good fire doesn’t burn out by dark, and I don’t like staying up all night playing nursemaid to a fire.  I guess I’ll have to take a nap earlier in the day so that I can stay up late the night that I burn the brush pile.
