Monday and Tuesday

Monday
We have started going down to the North end of the river walk, parking, and then walking down town to get the mail.  Today, my landing gear came, plus we stopped and picked up some 1/2 inch mesh to make a screen for dirt.  I mowed lawn today, all of a sudden the mower deck started making lots of noise, I stopped and tried to find the cause.  I did not find anything really obvious, so I kept on mowing.  After I finished, I went out and pulled the deck off, that is when I found the bad bearings in the left blade mandrel.  I checked at Sears and a new one was $74, I did a little checking and found a place in Oregon that had them for $19.95, so I ordered two.   I got some 2X4s out and made up a frame for the screen this afternoon since I couldn't do any more on the mower.

Tuesday
I puttered around home today, watering, sharpened the mower blades and brought in a few planes from the motor home.  Vera baked some rolls for lunch and we had French dip sandwiches, boy was it good!  James had a track meet against Huntington this afternoon at Kelso.  It was a great afternoon to sit and watch the kids.  James did the long jump, javelin and discus, it was the first time he has tried the discus and he got third.
