It's done!

This morning I finally finished the hardwood floor. The last transition strip is in, including trimming the molding around the end of it.

This afternoon I started raking leaves. The trees around the house have just started dropping leaves, and I've already got three large piles on the apron waiting for the city to take them away. The crabapple and the tree in the Fulton-side apron are ~1/3 down, but the other four trees haven't really started. The neighbor's tree by the driveway has only just started, too, but that's the biggest tree and has a lot of leaves to go. I just hope they're done by the time it starts snowing (last year they weren't quite).

Next, it's time to start cleaning leaves out of the gutters!

Feeling kinda guilty now for all the times this past week I've been admiring those lovely fall colours and saying to myself "thank heavens I don't have to deal with the raking" :) The parents live in an apartment so I've been indulging in a lot of walking around the residential neighbourhoods just admiring the trees and all those lovely old houses. Madison really is a lovely town.
