The boys are here , from the property service
Here's my version of the story
I was thinking condo - no outdoor work etc
Except , every place we went to see , would have estimates or actual costs of $ 400 for maintenance. Some condos , townhomes were already at $500 - 600 per month.
Since we travel , we got a lawn service that morphed into year round property care at $ 200 per month. Thus , the buzz
The service comes once a week , however , the people whose property backs the new airport to train station express train service hear the buzz or roar every 15 minutes. Its called the UP or Union - Pearson rapid train. The train costs approx $ 25 and takes 27 minutes.
Many cities have similar connectors and apparently ours seems expensive. I'd point out here that 27 min time is a miracle b/c by car 27 min is possible by breaking every traffic law and praying for no blockages anywhere
M read that breathing the air near dead raccoon bodies can be harmful and is suggesting a mask when I try to remove the poop balls the rocc - ie left in the shed on the ' bee. The rocc - ie may have pooped himself to death in there.
Weather : sunny but starting to cloud over , warm and rain due maybe twice to - day. We'll cool down , some , over the week end
The group ' Milk Carton Kids ' has a song titled ' Michigan's in the Rearview Mirror , Now ' , which may be appropos shortly.
The bassboat is in the water. While , tending the lawn and monitoring the carp situation , I said ' bring the batteries down from the house ' then I got the safety equipment , fire distinguisher and life-jackets ' And bango , Bob's your uncle and the boat was sliding into the water.
I should point out that the afternoon before , I did spend 30 minutes straightening out the marine railway rails. There where bumps in the top rail that would possibly grab the trolley wheels. The boat is stored inside a boathouse and rolls down by rail , trolley and winch into the water.
No probs ! The E-tec engine jumped to life , first turn of the key.
I ran upriver to Campbelltown and came home. Only difficulty was floating lumber and tree parts. A sharp lookout by the captain ( me )saved possible collisions from happening.
Ahoy , there , mateys !
Keep your feet dry
P.S. remember this post entry , when later you hear me ranting about boat problems
