On this day in 1775, the United State Marine Corps was founded. That explains why I made a phone call this morning at 6:20. On the third ring the callee answered saying "Happy Birthday, Marine." Ed was wondering if he could call me before 7:00, so I beat him to the punch. "Once a Marine Always a Marine." It's been 67 years since we me in Boot Camp, that's a long and rich friendship.
Perhaps I have a tire jinx. One of the large, rear tractor tires went flat in the shop a couple of weeks ago. The repairman found a rusty spot on the rim which allowed the tubeless tire to leak its air. It went flat again. Today the repairman returned and the formerly tubeless tire now has a tube.
Cleared one more section of fence of cedars. There's hope. No dew these days makes it more pleasant rolling around under the trees.
Takk for alt,
Al
