My Homemade Life: Mesquite

Wednesday, September 9, 2009

Over the weekend Pat cut down a Mesquite tree and drug it with the tractor to the house. All the leaves and small branches are cut off;

And stored in a barrel for kindling.

After the large branches and trunk were cut up;

We are ready to bar-b-que!

Glad the chicken post was helpful!
