Mums Delivered

Stacey and Linda returned home about 7:30 PM on Tuesday. They said they had a good time in IN, but had a little trouble by picking up a nail in one of the HHR tires. Linda said Bobby Bankson helped her out at Boles Chevy in Pendleton by getting a tire off a brand new HHR and putting it on ours. I guess it wouldn't have happened if Bobby hadn't been there.
So a BIG THANK YOU to Bob for helping out!

Linda went to work at the school today after I fixed breakfast. Stacey and I washed the car and worked on the portable generator that Linda brought home from Imon. I finally was able to get it started after putting in a new spark plug. The problem was keeping the motor running as the generator was being put under a load and then the motor kicking back to idle after the load was removed. I could get it to run under the load or at idle, but not both without changing the position of the choke. My arm was tired from starting the motor so many times. Once Linda came home we were eating chicken breasts and salad, the door bell rang and Fed Ex delivered our 1,000 mums. Right on schedule! Linda and I went to the mum patch and I bush hogged the area around the patches and Linda used the string trimmer to clean up the weeds around the gate and a few other places.
