It is my goal to carry every essential piece of groundskeeping equipment allotted to me in my cart at once.
I'm getting better at it.
(Note how cleverly I have obscured anything that would identify which local private college I work for.)

Ooo backpack blower! I'm using the handheld version, although it can suck leaves so that does good for me. Last fall found me picking up a new to me Husqvarna sidewalk edger; looking forward to manicured walks this spring.
ReplyDeleteThe backpack blower gets heavy after w while.
DeleteI got a new Stihl edger that had interchangeable attachments. Edger, trimmer, hedger. I'm tall enough I seem to be always bending over edging with it. I found an old 4 wheel Briggs powered edger that Ive been using.
Leaving no leaf unblown
ReplyDeleteHe motors forth
No blade unmown
He stays the course
Through wind & rain We feel his pain
Here's hoping that re-mains sane.
With apologies to my English teacher
Play a banjo and sing that and add a verse of sadness and pain and you could do a bluegrass tour.
DeleteHe re-mains sane. Left out the 'he'. heh heh.
DeleteYou must have been a Boy Scout; you're certainly prepared.
ReplyDeleteI never was a boy scout they are too militaristic.
DeleteI wasn't prepared for thar.
I was a boy scout for a short while. On our first "camping" trip, we spent the night at Timberline Lodge. The highlight was the guys pissing out the 2nd story window. I didn't consider that learning woodcraft, so I quit. That was Portland in the late 50's. Hasn't changed much either.
DeleteI remember "camping" on Mount Hood as a cub scout in the 1960s. The cabin was snowed in so one had to use the 2nd floor door. I thought that was so cool.
DeleteHow does what looks like a grain shovel get employed in day-to-day groundskeeping? And three rakes as essential equipment?
ReplyDeleteI think that means he's #1 in line to follow the horses should there be a parade.
