It pays to hoe

Seriously, my love of dirt and grass and flowers and making things nice and orderly really pays off sometimes. Like when I'm landscaping ONE person's property and a total stranger comes up to me wanting to know if I can do THEIRS. Love it. I also enjoy the feeling of a day's hard work "out in the field." Very Puritan. And then being rewarded with a cold beer and satisfying meal. Yes, twas a great start to Gary's Second Summer!
