Yesterday-the 23d-warmed up the lawn mower and changed the oil. Had already sharpened the blade and installed a new air filter. Also refilled the weed eater fired it up and it checked out.
And today before I used both pieces of equipment I noticed my two seprate Tulip growths had run their course. All the leaves on the ground now BUT they were fantastic while they lasted.
Lawn mower-9 years of ownership and weed wacker-8 years of ownership-performed their assigned duties as expected. But I fear this is but the FIRST cut of many in 2018!
On the other hand I will git a ride in this Thursday-the 26th-with my riding bud. We are sposed to finish up Mo-125 South of U S 160.

Into Arkansas on the ferry. I know some of my Brothers and Sisters are STILL waiting for the weather to git better in their locality. Care NOT when it happens-ride-BUT I NEED that Valkyrie generated wind mind flush!

RIDE SAFE.
