That's always in the plans Rick, I actually went half a minute longer today before my legs started to give out, they sure crank up the pressure on the cycle..

Was a great day today.

Got the recliner cushion to the upholster.

Trimmed a bush by the steps to the back porch.

Went to the Diner for dinner.
