nothing like a wet bag

if you leave your hockey equipmet bag out on the deck to air ut and it rains....



yesterday's dog lawn was a bit of a test and a treat....after we did a run out to issy's to drop off some boxes and have some egg salad sandwiches, we headed to the shop and grabbed the mower and i headed back out to richmond to give the dog lawn a go....as the lawn order shirt says, it's all about weedeating, lawn cutting, period...well, yesterday there were a few leaves to deal with as well and i did manage to get most if them but it was a bit of a drag having to empty the bag over and over...no biggie. what was a drag was when the cable that acts as the safety shut-off decided to break and make it so the lawn mower wouldn't start anymore....and i still had half the lawn to do and the sun was going down - fast. i managed to get it rigged-up and jingused so it would just stay on regardless if i was holding the safety or not. i did have the thought of how it would be kinda funny, not in a good way, that if had cut off my hand or foot due to the safety being disabled and not being able to get help because no one was around and bleeding to death, and i was actually cutting the grass at a hopstial. neat.
another trip to issy's later on today, more loading of toys on ebay, selling some crap on craigslist and some paint action around here. it's looking pretty good.
might rain today,,and there may be a few heavy gusts of wind. could be. welcome to winter my friends. get out your happy lights and plug 'em in.
