Don't know exactly how today's pictures will line up on the post but the guys are Indiana Jones and Mutt Williams from the new Indiana Jones movie. Indy's hat doesn't come off and both of them have some sort of wrist action that makes them have a button in the middle of their backs. Indy cracks a whip and I think Mutt has a knife (oh dear) The face mold on Indy is great though so he is worth having a gimmick. They are made by Hasbro who also made the Star Wars Han Solo and Luke Skywalker---I have both of them but think Luke is a better sculpt than Han. The other two picture show how the Chateau La Chat looks after it was moved to the Crossings and one of those pink Barbie fold up houses was put on top. A regular high rise. The pictures aren't too clear but I don't have a regular camera only the one on my phone. In other news I have gotten a battery operated weed whacker and it is a joy to use. It makes almost no noise, has no fumes, self feeds the line and weighs about five pounds. I also discovered that swisher trimmer we bought a couple years ago is still under warranty and next week it is going to the shop----last year it had a bad magneto and I bet it is the same thing wrong with it this year as it won't even try to start---not even a little grunt. I also went out Wednesday and got a new lawn mower---it is a self propelled electric start. I also bought a cable and lock and secured it to one of the posts in the garage. If anyone tries to steal it ---it will be some trouble to get . This morning I weed whacked the rock garden, part of the crappy bank, and two flower beds----the battery started to run low so I decided to stop although I do have a spare battery I decided it was getting too hot to stay out any longer. I did repaint my old round picnic table (along with a few ants) my poor table is about twenty seven years old and has been painted more times than I can count but is still a good table. I probably won't ever use it----it has never been used much---but it looks real nice sitting in the shady side of the Crossings with a couple of chairs. I have a few flowers I need to move out of the woods. Several years ago before I got sick with Bells Palsy we were going to make a shade garden and I planted several flowers over there but I am just going to rescue my flowers and let the woods have the rest of the garden back. I already have three and a half acres to take care of and don't need any more. When I went to get my new mower I did think about another riding mower but our yard used to be a pasture and it is full of rabbit burrows and rocks and stumps and a riding mower really needs a nice semi flat yard to cut. If a wheel were to fall off in one of those holes it might turn over----on me. My girl friend Susie's youngest brother was killed a few years ago with a tractor doing that.

Gary works this weekend so me and the girls are just going to play. I did buy some pork chops and corn to cook Monday on my electric grill----we have a smoker but I never have been one to smoke or charcoal grill stuff that was always something Gary was into doing ---I really don't like eating ashes. Well it's about time to start supper. Tonight it is going to be catfish nuggets on the grill and corn and maye some pork and beans.
