    I really didnt mind, just the gas its several miles away, but my dad was wanting out of the house, so he rode with me,give us a chance to visit,got to see the farmers digging sweet potatoes,corn harvest is really going, and got to see some cotton blooming. Dad loves to see that kinda stuff, gets him talking bout how it was when he used to farm and work the cotton gin.So it was time well spent.But i gotta get to scoring some more,that was everything i had, but got some honey do's, theres been a request to screen in the porch,put up a storm door,and rework the flower bed.so i know what the next couples days will be

    My yard will not normally take tires, i have seen them take in push mowers,but riding mowers and any vehicle that looks like shred instead of parts, tires have to be removed. Now if a vehicle might be resold as a running auto they let them stay on.
