Who: Chloe Weiss (
betroth) & Killian Ryan (
youngestone)
When: Thursday 11/07, afternoon
Where: DOWN ON THE NOT-QUITE-FARM
What: Getting the property ready for winter!
[ Chloe has prepared a big ol' checklist for the day. Nothing so ordinary as a pad of paper and a pen, no, she has an old chalkboard encased in a wooden frame hanging on the outside of a shed. It's written on appropriately, in a clean hand: ]
☑ Spread compost
☑ Winter supply of hay [ Several tons, in fact, split with a neighbor ]
☑ Organize bedding/footing
☐ Spread footing [walkways, paddock, gates!]
☐ Check water run-off [clean/add barrels where needed!]
☐ Review chore equipment
☐ Lighting, lighting, lighting!
...and it's that last of which she's taken on as her current task, leaving Killian to pick and choose what order he'd like to accomplish the chores in best. She trusted they could both get it done — it's a beautiful day, perfect for tying up all the loose ends. Cold and windy and clear and bright, but Chloe knows that they only have a little time left to finish preparing for the soggy winter months. The storms could come on quick, and they're definitely due.
She's already checked the lighting on the outside of the house, so now she's perched atop a tall yellow ladder in the middle of the stables, carefully removing the wire from the light fixtures and replacing all the bulbs.
When she thinks she hears shuffling, she places both hands on the ladder's topmost rung and peers over at the stable entrance in her direct line of sight. ]
Killian? How are you doing?
