a brief outing

I took the bus into town Saturday to the gas station where I filled up the gas cans that I use for the lawn mower. It’s nice to have the cargo bay for smelly gas cans rather than the car trunk. It was fun to drive it a little - I felt a little rusty at first, but it came back quickly. I think the biggest difference from driving a car is the need to anticipate stops much further in advance. Here are some silly Blackberry photos:

I also think I finally figured out the problem I had been having with the air compressor not making pressure. I found that the engine oil was a little low and that was effecting the compressor. After topping it off a couple of weeks ago, it now charges at idle like it used to. I need to get the dipstick fixed…
