Friday Update

A helicopter was again spraying the squash field this morning, and we didn't get too close to the vapors. They're fighting the same bugs that I am with my yellow squash.

The homeless guy told me he was rousted by the railroad for camping on their property. He wanted money from me for gas, but I counseled him just to move 100 feet away from the tracks. I don't think he has a vehicle. I try to be decent, but I'm not going to start handing out cash.

Some neighbors gave me both an old 2 stroke line trimmer and also a leaf blower. I'm going to start them this morning and try to get them working* correctly.

*The leaf blower seems to work fine, and the string trimmer may only need an adjustment to the throttle cable.
