yard work and the vernal equinox

we did yard work today. the last time we visited it rained the day we had planned to cut the sea grass, so today was the day. morgana also cut the branches off the holly bush . . i mean tree. it had grown too big. we hadn't trimmed it enough each year. my mom still has one at the east end of the house, but she decided that the one by the steps had to go. she's going to put in a railing for herself. she has nothing right now to help her walk down the steps and her balance isn't as good as it used to be.
after morgana and i had bundled up all the prickly holly branches, and taken them to the dump to be mulched, chanda raked up the remnants.

she raked a long time!

we also noted that today is the vernal equinox and night and day are the closest to equal length.
