Mowing

The renters on either side of us (same landlord) will not mow their yard until pushed and sometimes not even then. Fortunately, the city takes a stand on this and if it comes down to it they will mow it at $150 an hour. My guess is neither of these renters mowed and the landlord was warned by the city. I drew the conclusion that the landlord hired a man to mow it. The rent should go up considerably in both places.
Did a wonderful job, Right?

Road trip today

We will be off and running today. Our agenda is a preliminary stop at the drugstore to pick up our "all-the-time meds" and another at the courthouse to pay our taxes before venturing east to Ames Iowa where we will be returning an item to the UPS Store and a 3-month appointment for Butch with the plastic surgeon to look him over for skin cancers. Hopefully, none will be found. Then we will be heading south to Costco. We do not make it there very often when we are in Iowa but today is the day. And then home to Jefferson to get ready for trivia night at the Elks. A very full day.

Yesterday Butch went south to mow the Tallman's yard on Lake Panorama. It is a win/win for Butch. He likes to mow and enjoys being near the lake. I went to JIGS at Casa del Sol and met with 10 of Jefferson Iowa Girls. We all grew up in Jefferson and many of us were in the same class of '61.

The days fill up amazingly so!

Taken a few days ago. A simple house finch. I became intrigued with the feather pattern.
