Time Off

  •     Don't forget to put your flag up!
     
    Remember, only half-way up, until noon.  Or, attach a black ribbon to the top of the flag.
     
    Also, please heed the President's call for a National Day of Prayer for Peace this Memorial Day.  http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/05/20070515-7.html

  • As an afterthought, I got to cut a lot of grass, about 15 acres over the weekend, but I did put my flag at half mast on Mon morning. The 8 yr old had instructions to raise it at noon and sure enough, as I drove by on the tractor, he was lifting it all the way around 12:05.

  • 15 acres? That IS a lot of grass. I recently saw a visual which really helped me better understand exactly how big an acre is: it was a rectangle overlaid on top of a football field (U.S. football) from the goal line on one end to the 10-yard line of the other end, so 90 yards total, and the full 53-yard width of the field. That is an acre. 

    So Steve mowed 15 football fields, except for those last 10 yards of each. I hope it wasn't a push-mower! 

  • Nope, my big ol' tractor + my wife on a riding mower. I need to take a picture. Still probably got 4-5 acres left, but it's raining, so my aching back gets a break.

  • well not having that much interest in basketball living in mumbai, India, we used to take a walk on marine line in, and all the other time just doing fun with roommates.

  • So why don't you come back?
