Nothing much has changed. I'm struggling to remember anything that happened during the week, in fact.....I'm seeing fewer and fewer people wearing masks around town, and we're still only up to 29 cases (still only 472 tested). Working from home enters week 7 now, I think.....it was generally a cold, rainy, windy week, so not a lot going on outside either....the whole family did get out for a geocaching road trip today, we drove through the county roads around Plymouth and Bremen, finding 5 without a lot of searching. Mostly we just walked right to them. Ice cream afterwards.....Got some yard work done over the weekend when it warmed up. I got the backyard mowed and swept just before the lawn tractor quit. Dang, that's too familiar. The engine seems fine, it just won't move. And I found a plastic fan impeller on the ground underneath it when I pushed the tractor back to the garage. Not sure what it does or even for sure that it came off the tractor, but it looked worn. Hope it's not expensive to fix.....The battery in the truck also died this weekend. I hadn't driven it much, and on Friday I had to push it out of the garage to get the tractor out. It wouldn't even cycle the power locks. I couldn't jump it from the van. Dead dead dead. So, about $150 for a new one.....
