This past week has been quite good at the rental branch. Our assistant manager Miranda has been off on vacation this past week, but the rest of us have stepped up to keep things going so well.
Home on Thursday (26 April), I helped mom with her new lawn mower, which she bought the day before. (The previous one had engine damage that was impossible to repair.) After trying to get everything set up, I was able to mow the front lawn with the new mower. It worked out very well.
I was back at Circus Flora (http://circusflora.org/) Thursday night for another volunteer shift. We had a very nice crowd for the show.
After a full day of work yesterday, I relaxed at home that night. This morning, though, I was at Jefferson Barracks County Park (https://www.stlouisco.com/parksandrecreation/parkpages/jeffersonbarracks) for World War II Weekend (https://www.facebook.com/events/2047820755453633/), a living history event this weekend. Reinactors of German, US, British, Canadian, and Soviet troops camped at the park--complete with authentic uniforms, arms, equipment, and accessories. I saw a skirmish involving the Germans and Americans, with troops shooting blanks while giving visitors a feel for World War II small unit combat. It is quite a nice event and rather appropriate it is being held at a former military post.
Later.
