Spring cleaning, pt. 2

Here are a few other spring chores to tackle....

* Add more mulch to flower/plant beds

* Begin to plant the garden

* Attach rain barrels to downspouts to make use of the "captured" water and reduce your monthly water bill to water the grass & garden areas

* Spiff up your outdoor furniture - wash, wax, paint etc

* Check your driveway seams & repair if necessary

* Walk the perimeter of your house and make sure the grading is appropriate

* Take some time to relax and enjoy the fruits of your labor
