    Look at what she accomplished with you, teacher.
    I know you’re just rubbing her.
    That was so enjoyable to watch.
    Laughed my butt off.
    My hubby always used old fence,few concrete blocks, etc. for smoothing.
    We ran a 120+ acre Youthcamp.
    We had multiple High School Band Camps, so the ground had to be pristine to prevent injuries.
    The pesky moles created problems.

    I've decided that I really like Cyril the chef. I think it's a combination of his accent, how he describes the dishes on his menu, his dreadlocks and his mannerisms. He just makes me smile each time I see him; he reminds me of a French character I once saw in a movie.

    Stephanie, the moles and voles have turned our lawn into a landmine of dirt piles. When my husband tries to mow with those dirt mounds, he gets lost in a sea of black dirt, and he gets covered in it too! So, he took a piece of metal fencing, added heavy rocks, and tied it to the back of the riding mower. Now the lawn is smooth and can actually be mowed without looking like Mount Vesuvius erupting out of the ground, and swallowing my husband whole!
    Necessity is the mother of invention after all. 😆

I started a car of mine decades ago after the car shop worked on it and parked it immediately infront of a telephone pole. Yes, I started it without my foot on the clutch and dug the front bumper into my front tires!. The menu sounds delicious. I love roast port. Local, happy pork sound so much better than the commercial farms who live miserable lives. Love the audible french. It would very helpful with my accent and learning a bit of the language. Please keep some in each vlog, please!
