Lovely Oct Workday!

At Elderberry, we have workdays twice a month, and today was a beautiful day to be working around the community.  We had a visitor here - Tim - and he is a skilled person, so we put him to work on a job that requires skill!  Over the past year, we added a stairway to access the 2nd floor of one of our old barns, and a safety railing was needed.  So three of the gents worked together on that.  We also repaired a board on the old log cabin, did some final painting on the mailbox structure, did some weeding and landscaping work, and cleaned in the Hive (our common house).  Very productive day!!!

Joyce was a weeding machine today (with a seriously evil tool!)
