Mowing and Flying

The weather looked good this morning, so I decided to go up to Toledo and mow.  The field has needed mowing and rolling for awhile, but the mower was blocked in the building, so I took my mower.  When we got to the field, Bob was there waiting for the fog to clear so he could fly.  When he found out what I was going to do, he wanted to see if the mower in the building would start.  We hunted high and low for the key before I discovered the spare in the motor home.  In the mean time, Vera and I moved a couple of benches and got the club mower around the tractor that was in the way.  When I tried the club mower the battery was dead, so I got my jumper battery and got it going.

Bob volunteered to mow also, so Bob mowed the outside, while I mowed and rolled the middle of the runway, it went pretty fast and turned out great!

Of course just as we finished mowing, the sun went behind the clouds and the wind picked up.  Bob got in a couple of flights, I flew part of one with his Beaver and had a good time playing with the flaps.  I got 3 flights in on my planes and we called it a day.
