I spent the day yesterday repairing my mower, and finishing up mowing my yard. First of all when I was mowing the evening before the right front wheel fell off. The cotter pin had broke, and thus left nothing to keep it on. So Friday morning I drove into Cassville to get me some new bushings; which go inside the wheel slipping over the spindle/axle; also some cotter pins, and washers. When I arrived back home I fixed the wheel, adding a lot of grease to the wheel and axle and bushings.
Even though I was using a rider the heat was putting a lot of stress on this decaying body, and I took several breaks. If you don’t know – I have about 2.5 to 3 acres that I mow. It was starting to look a bit scraggly, as well as brown from no rain. It still looks brown, but looks much better with it mowed. Anyway, I finished the mowing about 4:15 p.m., and a refreshing, breeze came up, with a little rain shower. I just stood out in it absorbing the falling water. It felt pretty good having the falling rain cool me off After Mowing the yard.
The rain, was what I said it was; just a little shower, because it didn’t last very long, or come down very hard. It wet the ground; until the sun came back out, then it was g-o-n-e.
I thank my Lord and GOD for the moisture, and refreshing that came After Mowing, along the banks of Flat Creek.
