Mechanical Update

[robby]

I'm one of the do-it-yourself types, and I have good tools, and enough experience, so that I can often repair simple things. I fixed my petrol-powered rotovator today, and let it run for 15 minutes. Some people look down their noses at powered garden equipment, but it will be handy this fall. With my bad knee, I'm not sure I could turn the soil without it.

As I was working on the rotovator, a lady at the livestock auction came by, and now I'm going to fix her bicycle tyre, and in exchange, get a free truckload of aged animal manure. My mechanical talent has now been rewarded with a large quantity of shit.

A good exchange! You fix her bike, she gives you shit.

At least, she didn't give me shit about the rotovator. She has a vegetable garden over there, as well.
