    First day of Spring cleanups. Pretty much the same thing as leaf cleanups but more. Digging out beds and bushes hard with blower, plus trimming monkey grasses and maiden grasses, plus removing all downed limbs and twigs, plus a first mow and bag at 3" to rejuvenate winter weathered lawns.

    All about 3 weeks early due to unseasonably warm weather.

    A little drizzly out so did a maintenance day at work.

    Changed out radiator in my work truck which had a small leak. Replaced top and bottom bearings in a deck mounted assist blower for a bagging system and got the old black Ford running again.

    Beautiful Spring day, if a bit windy. Temps were mid to upper 60s (F)... in the middle of Feb! Weather girl talking about 70s today.

    What can I say? Friday night. Pizza, movies, popcorn. I'm over my allotted calories but only by 265. Could have been (and has been) much worse.
