 Earlier this week Max came up and helped with the mowing and various projects. Then I had to run home to get his vaccine and do physical therapy. Then David and I returned to collect Gramee. After a very warm morning of mowing, David and I trued up the rifle and he shot another Groundhog that was burrowing under Bo's house and the old shed. He has gotten quite tall.

 Max came with us to Cullman. The prior two days had been very rainy so everything was soaked. We spent the first morning working on the diesel carrier. I got the second set of wheels on it so we could roll it over to the tractor. A small improvement but a useful one. Then we got the battery saw and trimmed the overhanging branches on the field behind the house. That will make mowing a little less trouble and will permit me to put herbicide on the growth at the edge. Then we discovered the rototiller had a leak from the gas line. We got that fixed fairly easily I relocated the zero turn to the barn since it continues to drip oil. The bottom seal will require replacement at the end of summer. I put the new mower and the tiller in the workshop. I also registered the Toro mower and requested the side discharge attachment that we needed. Today we will spray some weeds and perhaps get some mowing done on the field across from the lake.
