Firing up the compost machine

Once again I've left the compost pile to go cold and generally neglected.  I caught the farm bug again just before Seanna came down and it's stuck so I figured I better get the compost going.  I love my chipper.  I love taking a Vicodin, putting on my ipod and chipping stuff for a couple hours.

I needed greens so I went around and pruned some offending far reaching branches from the Chinese flame (Koelreuteria bipinnata).  This type of material is great for composting as it's just about the right mix of browns-n-greens.
