We have no lawn, but we have a riding mower. Until we can get it out to Possum Manor West, I will play. It is a bit difficult to hear, as the mower is loud….but I had a blast. When I pick up some gas, I will go all the way down the mountain. It [...]
After days and days of rain, the sun is out!!!! It was raining so hard last night that I could hear it on the roof. Today, however, it is sunny. Ever read the Ray Bradbury short story “A Summer in a Day?” It takes place on Venus where it stops raining for two hours every [...]
