It has been a while since I have put an update up, so I figured today would be a good day to do so!

I have been working in the yard off and on when the weather has been nice.  Last Saturday I watered the trees and fertilized them and did some yard work.

Today I did some more yard work and watered my trees again.  John behind me came and got all my gravel and dad helped load it up with our backhoe while John loaded it up with his as well.  Dad then went to a funeral and Chuck and I then went to lunch and then went to Sears.  I bought the shiny red lawn mower that you see.  I had a choice.  A red one, or a gray one.  Guess which I bought?

On the way home it rained like heck on me.  Oh, I drove it home the 3 miles.  Did I mention it rained the whole way home?  Yea, I could have went to get the truck and load it up, but it wasn't raining when I started going home!

Anyway, it an 18.5 hp model with a 4 gallon fuel tank and full auto transmission.  I also bought a 9 cubic foot grass catcher.  The mower was $1500 and the catcher was $300.  Now I am poor :)
