A pair of oil changes, built a small retaining wall to keep our front yard off my nieghbors driveway.
This strip of property is actually on the other side of the line, but we water and cut the grass so I just went ahead and did it. Robin, our nieghbor was real happy with the job.
After that, we spent the rest of the weekend on the back yard, pulling weeds, pruning trees and shrubs and spreading mulch, 14 bags of it, on top of the nearly 40 bags we've already put down.
Changed the filters in the pond filter system.
Assembled a pair of garden hose reels. Note, when coiling the hose on the reel be certain that the water is ON and the hose is fully PRESSURIZED! Otherwise, when you turn the water on, the expanding hose will suddenly over power the plastic reel and blow the reel right off the mount and you'll end up taking a very abrupt shower. DAMHIKT
On Thursday just before heading north, I did make some sawdust on the shadow box we're building. I made the back. I also got my first true kickback off the TS. I was chamfering the corners off the back, 1/4" ply, and one of the small triangles I'd cut off contacted the back of the blade and it flew up and grazed my upper arm. No real injury, just a scrape and a small bruise. It's amazing how fast these can happen.
