Today is partly sunny, muggy and warm, quite windy.  Chance of thunderstorms later.

I fed the birds.  I've seen house finches, doves, and a squirrel today.

We started breaking down the brushpile in the middle of the yard.  Nobody else would get around to it for months, which does not constitute actually solving the problem.  >_<  This society is so broken.

When I was little, people had more tools and more connections.  So it wasn't left just to individuals or professionals.  With the work spread out, it got done faster.  Now, things often don't get done and that can cause problems.

Meanwhile over in Terramagne, most towns have a municipal response to things like storms.  See "Windswept" for an example.

EDIT 6/26/21 -- We filled a wheelbarrow with smaller sticks and hauled it to the firepit.

EDIT 6/26/21 -- Just as we finished supper, it began pouring rain, enough to cover the patio with water, not just a few puddles like usual.  So no more yardwork today.

Sometimes that happens here. As in this funny article:
