Our intrepid homeowner takes on the front yard

Our intrepid homeowner takes on the front yard, originally uploaded by Hawk3ye.

Today is my first day of full-time telecommuting. I don’t have the extra 40 minutes in the car each day listening to Kurt Vonnegut stories on audiobook, but I do potentially have a more interesting lunch environment than the suburban office park (although, minus the goose poop, that can be quite pretty).

Today I spent my 30-minute lunch cutting down last year’s decorative grasses from the front yard. Lo and behold, there were daffodils and Siberian squill and possibly tulips underneath!

I can’t wait to see what the blooms look like.
