Jan. 8th, 2011 10:49 amHad a blast at karaoke last night. Stacy and I sang More Than Words, Give It Away, Patience, and Fat Bottomed Girls. Stacy and Kelly sang Sweet Child o' Mine, and I wound up jumping in and helping out a little bit. Stacy and Susan sang their world famous rendition of Save A Horse (Ride a Cowboy). Stephen showed up part way through the night and sang a few of his regular tunes as well as kicking ass on a new one: Crazy Little Thing Called Love. While some people might play air guitar, I play Stacy's arm, and rocked out some solos on quite a few of the tunes... especially Becky's signature performance of Separate Ways (she also did I Dreamed a Dream, from Les Miserables... which is a pretty impressive vocal tune).
This morning Stacy's getting some work done for a 3pm deadline, while I'm waiting for the boys to wake up so we can see about taking down a bit more of the tree. This afternoon, we'll all head over to see Stacy's Aunt Nancy for a bit of dinner and socializing... and to take a look at some more possible tree work.
Unless the work on Nancy's trees proves to be very minor, we will likely be doing some work next weekend as well. With that in mind, over the course of the next week, I'll need to make sure I get the large chain for the Husqvarna sharpened. The smaller chain probably needs it as well. I'll need that saw on hand if we're going to work on any reasonable sized trees.
The truck will also be back down here for a workshop at the Lancaster Farm & Home Center on the 29th. Stacy and Jen will be at the workshop, for both the learning experience we'll all get and to help provide a larger presence for Green Man Enviroscaping LLC. As we're coming into it late, our part may be to simply help out with the registration, but we will also be on hand as an example of a contractor that can help homeowners achieve the purpose of the workshop: The Woods In Your Backyard ~ Create and Enhance Natural Areas Around Your Home. The workshop will be presented in part by Julianne Schieffer, who did the wild edibles talk I opened up at The Edge of the Woods Nursery last year. The truck, of course, will do its part of introducing us to the region by sitting out front and acting as a rolling billboard of sorts.
