How very industrious of you. 💪 I'm glad your tree turned out so well after you put in all that work.
Our weather is the opposite of yours today. Blowing a gale, literally, and raining. I still managed to get out for 3 brisk walks despite getting soaked each time. I can no longer igore my high blood pressure readings so have to get the walks in whatever the weather. 😱
I got it before Christmas last year, but just never got up the gumption to do it. My other aluminum trees had never needed washing and if this were the only one I had with nothing to compare it too, I might have been just fine with it, but, alas.... there was and it had to be done. I AM glad it is over with.
It was sunny here all day and mild. One of my Sis-in-laws came out and visited with me and Mom, so that was a nice surprise. It's been a good day. Walking in the blustery rain doesn't sound fun, but I do understand when it matters for your health.
