Some folks can type messages on a computer, and some folks can start their tractors after a very long winter---but--never the twain shall meet! That said---better call the repair shop---you'll be neck high in grass by the time you get it to run! And, if you get it hooked up the way you asked about, the only thing that will run is you, as the garage lights up, and you run for the garden hose! Better seek close at hand professional help!

It's my first year, too, and I am also very surprised by the success I've had. Seeds never worked out for me before (and I still don't seem to have much luck planting in place in the spring) but the wintersowing went well. Several things are blooming - and they are plants I wouldn't have found in the garden centers around here. Even though my flowerbeds are nowhere near my mental picture, hardly a day goes by that my dh doesn't say, "It sure looks different from last year!"

When I was a child in central Texas in the 1950s, my bedroom had wallpaper with cowboys riding broncos on it, and I had a chenille bedspread with a cowboy riding a bronco on it. I hated it and wanted a pink chiffon canopy bed, which my parents refused to get me, although they would have gotten one for my sister if she had asked. I like SW motif in small doses, and this is an overdose. But then I never liked Ralph Lauren and I liked him even less after we had an operations manager from RL work here. He fortunately did not last that long.

Ahhh, brings back fond memories. My father was a professional boxer and was well known for his rope jumping skills. When I was a kid, I used to sit mesmerized watching the blur of his rope as he went through his daily conditioning.
