quickie yard fixes

The front yard is starting to become more open and lose the weedy, vacant feel

Yesterday was nice for December so we ended up playing outside. Quite randomly, Ronni suggested taking down a section of the chain link fence that we hate. That went so well that we took down a second length as well. Having recently cut down a few scruffy bushes from in front of the porch, and more of the giant view-blocking bush from beside the sidewalk (all as seen here), the front yard is starting to become more open and lose the weedy, vacant feel.
