then I got eight of the nine slats cut for the park bench.
then bro Dave came and I was done working for the day., that's OK because visiting people is important, too.
I will be home...
rain rain and more rain.
two weeks ago we bought a bare root pear tree.

It is looking really nice...

he will enjoy driving it.

Barb, I wish I could be there. I think I could get the mower going,

on mine the throttle control goes up to a point and stops. BUT, I have to push it hard to get it into choke. Annie hasn't quite mastered this step.
Another possibility is water in...
