I got up early (8:00) today in order to do the yard work when it was cool. I started off by doing the spraying. By the time I was finished with that my back was killing me. I told myself I'd just do the areas by the garage with the weed eater and quit. That went easier and quicker than I thought it would. I was finished by 10:15. That was too early to quit, so I got on the lawnmower.
Mowing the lawn was easier because the grass wasn't really high. However, it was dry and really dusty. By the time I was finished my glasses were so dirty that I could barely see. I went in and took a shower as soon as I was done. I am going to really miss that shower.
After lunch we went out to buy some office supplies for Ellen. We also stopped at Costco to get water and drinks for the trip. It was a really good feeling to have that lawn work out of the way.
In the evening I did a little work on the layout. I installed some more power leads and drilled some holes in some of the track pieces. I also continued to build up the retaining wall. It takes a long time because I have to wait for the glue to dry on each section. I don't think I'll do much more on the track before the fall.
I logged onto ebay. What a mistake. There's all these bargains that I'd like to get involved in that I can't. It's depressing.
