What I do


Well, for the past few days i have been doing yard work around the shop, getting ready for the busy boom in july. which means i come home from work with my arms and hands and whole body vibrating and tingling from holding a weed whacker or lawn mower for hours at a time. yeouch. who mows and whacks a campground anyway? i mean, this is ALASKA! let the weeds grow free!! well thanks for listening to me whine. i have to make this short, i cant feel my hands to type...

sounds rough.... not al all like the dreamy job you usually have. Y'all get Tom soon, no? Get him to update his blog, i'm tired of looking at emptiness every day. Good luck with the weeds.

Mare,
I know how you feel, I was using this sod cutter with your day, cutting out lawn where I am going to put raised flower beds and a few shade trees around the yard. Man I couldn't feel my fingers and arms for hours, and I got a headache for the rest of the day too!! This sod cutter has a blade that vibrates forward and backward like real fast, about 18 inches wide, and you hang onto these long handles, kinda like plowing behind a mule, only shakier!! Wow am I glad that job is over.
Having a great time there mare, hope to see you some time.
