Barking Spider Acre Mowed

Since we got a little soaking on Monday (one friend said his rain gauge recorded 1/4 inch), I thought I'd best get the Barking Spider Acre mowed. I had been watching Bo across the street doing some mowing and very little dust was kicked up.

So, I got out the Bad Boy 0-turn mower out and proceeded to mow.

All went fine until I got stuck along the road at the edge of the drainage ditch. I got the Jeep over and used a new chain I bought a few months ago to pull the mower out of the ditch. It took only one try and I was back to mowing in a few minutes (I was 95% done anyway).

After I was done, I headed down to the Flying J to pick up my mail. Once I got back from that, I popped open a bottle (I eventually had two of them) of Alien Amber Ale. Refreshing!

Above, it's Alien time!

We are supposed to get more rain this week (fingers crossed). That should help green things up around here.

Interesting Ale Names

While in the market last evening, I spotted two ales with interesting names to them and snapped a photo of them with my cell phone. Both have some a demon of some sort on the labels.

The one on the left is called "Stone: Sublimely Self-Righteous" and the one on the right is "Arrogant Bastard Ale."  I am guessing that they may come from micro-breweries.
