No response from the guy with the Kaiser, but the ad is still up. Wonder if he posted his car for sale on Sunday, then left town for Turkey day on Monday...

FYI, lawn mowing is not a winter activity up North.

Leave removal activity on much of the lawn consists of pulling a leaf sucker contraption behind the mower. But there are some areas (banks) that are too steep for that. There was longer grass in these areas, so I took the push mower out to even it out.

Had a phone call with my older brother tonight. He had his Stent removed today after prostate surgery almost 6 weeks ago. That was a relief and his surgeon assured him his PSA will be zero. We talked and laughed and wondered out loud how fast the years go by.
I had my consultation for my diagnostic test on my disc today. I am scheduling it as soon as I can. More about that later.

I saw a number of houses with Christmas lights alive while driving home from band rehearsal.
Surely LAJ has similarly dialed up the wattage on his lawn.

No lawn mowing in winter for obvious reasons.
