Let me tell you a story of long ago.....



 Once upon a time.... there was a girl who lived in a state which has lots of rain. It rained lots and lots and rarely stopped. She needed to mow the so called "lawn" which had magically turned into a wetland...
So this is the beginning of the most ridiculous day a girl had in a while. So it was beautiful this last weekend and yard work needed to be done. So mowing was top on her list because like you can see she was hidden in the long lawn. 


Hello back there- get out before you get eaten by the angry weedman!!!!  So this feet of great patience and skill was undertaken with a push mow and lots of sun. First, the girl thought to go in all the dry spots and then go grab boots to help her in this wetland. But much to her surprise (or first step) this very wet bandit was going to be much dirtier business than expected. (thus the above pic- not hairy legs but of wet, muddy, grass covered legs!) So she kept trudging along till - (kirsplash!)

Water up to her shoelaces. Oh NO! What to do- the blade cuts at about two inches! Then a marvelous idea came to her head- (45 degrees- a better cut- and less water throwage?) yes please! And it worked- about 2 hours later done with the wetland- and more the muddier! What girl could possibly dominate such a impossible and unheard of event? No one may know but know that anything is possible with water, fire, and some gasoline!

Remember: If you are ever asked to makeup a story on the spot leave out the bear- climbing to the top of a mountain to get wings and fly back to his friends!!!
