Dr. Livingston I Presume

I played Stanley to my trailer's Dr. Livingston. I pulled that bad boy out of the jungle behind the Japanese Maples at Mom and Dad's. It had a regular Maple or two growing through the tailgate. The wiring had provided a feast or two for local varmints. The lights had been demolished and the floor no longer existed in this dimension. Hey, the tires however hold air and have tread (after a fashion). There was one small valve problem. It failed.
All things being equal the rescue was a success since the picture you see is in the back yard in Rome. With some excellent guys from Meineke in Roswell, up in front of M&D's, providing some handy welding the repairs went more quickly than I expected.
Yes, the lawnmower on the trailer used to live on the carport. It was the cargo for the test run. Next will be a swap of the Toro for my JD tractor. The JD deck is being untrue so the tractor will have to stay with Mom till the end of the season or the deck gets leveled, whichever comes first.
