I mowed the lawn and got a couple flights in with the Mini-Titan helicopter.  It’s a great little heli, though there’s not a lot of room in the yard, yet, to get really crazy with it, I just buzz around over the back yard.   There’s an R/C club a few miles away I might join, if they don’t mind helicopters.  A lot of places don’t like these ‘dagblasted whirly birds’ flying around their airplanes :D

As you can see in the pic of the other side yard, it hasn’t been taken care of yet, I’ll probably work on raking out the dead wild violet roots, filling in the holes and sunken spots this week evenings and put some grass seed down.   I’ve started to cut back on watering of the peninsula lawn, I want to force the grass to start extending it’s roots down into the soil so that it will hopefully be decently established by the time our smoldering summer comes along.
