Hot date Friday

DH and I had a hot date this afternoon. 

We burned a brush pile!  I just couldn't resist the funny.  We have a burn permit but you can only burn between 6 PM and midnight.  Probably because it is more likely that the volunteer fire department members are home and not working away from the area.  DH has been battling buckthorn in our woods.  It is an invasive tree species that will take decades, if not forever, to eliminate but he's making great progress in the woods behind the house.  Buckthorn saplings pulled up last fall made up a big part of this brush pile.  What did I do?  Well, I enjoyed the fire. 

The cats enjoyed running around today in the lovely weather.  (Yes, I'm still knitting the brown bag project so no knitting photos.)  (You get cats, instead, like any good knit blogger would give you.) 

Fuzzle and Blue in the violets and a Fuzzle Glamour shot, just so Fuzzle's girlfriend knows she is still around.  And the pear tree is blooming.......

She looks so happy! My little forgotten fuzzle wuzzle. I heard about how wonderful your land is today. :D *ahem*
LOOK AT THE ROOM YOU HAVE!!! You could so have a couple of sheep and a llama. Oh... do I have plans for Sept. Better tell Dan to hide the credit cards!

What fun! I love a good fire. We used to burn our autumn leaves when I was a kid - my absolute favorite!! Did you toast wienies?

Your kitties are so sweet. We do need to get you a sheep, though.

Ahem...some good knit bloggers have *dogs.*

I am very impressed. In my part of the world, fire permits are very hard to come by.

Love seeing the kitties and the blooming tree. Good luck with that brown bag.

Happy Mother's Day to Fuzzle, Blue, White Dot and Black Dot's mommy. :D
