Labor Day U.S.: celebrated on the first Monday in September in honor of the American Labor Movement. I am fairly sure that most of the current U.S. population do not have a clue what that is. Labor Day is the “end of Summer” holiday for most … including me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almost always, at least as a property owner in Northwest Montana, Labor Day weekend has been a time of thinking about and starting property prep for Winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, my Labor Day list includes: prepping Wild Thing for sale (yes … I plan on selling Wild Thing), prelim house and window cleanup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This week’s cherry tomato haul … background is…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Wild Thing! I moved her out to allow access to water and power for wash and cleanup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There were some issues with retracting leveling jacks. But WD-40 and a lift from a shovel resolved those. Pedal to the metal and out she came!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And then the power washer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My current weekend task M.O. (modus operandi) is to work on my task list, with breaks, until noon-1:00 p.m. ish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, Day 1, I did the off and on bit until 2:30 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I managed to get all set up and cleaned the front and 1\/3 of one side in that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my defense, this was all along with “outings with Emmett”! Walks, playing fetch, playing in the hose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I feel the same!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Labor Day Weekend: Day 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
