How We Spent Our Thanksgiving Day

We spent most of Thanksgiving giving thanks for the good weather that allowed us to prepare the yard for winter. Here you see the only picture grabbed from the day's events, of Dale mowing ground cover with the relatively-new electric mower. All of our powered yard tools now are electric: mower, weedeater, and blower. Except for the 100-foot cord, we couldn't be more pleased. With the help of these tools, we mowed, raked, mulched, and moved the yard waste to the back yard, where, on Friday the 27th, it will be transported off to the dump site.

All in all, a good day. And that's what we are thankful for.

I love the rock on your house. There is an architect in Tulsa, Jack Arnold, who uses the same type of mortar technique with limestone rock and they are beautiful, too. Almost built one of them years ago but thankfully looked harder at my bank balance before I did. I grew up using an electric mower (remember Dad and AP&L) so have less than fond memories of them (it had about a 16 inch cut), hope yours does better. Richie
