Hopefully the mower will start this morning

 It started right up for me yesterday but the gas tank has a tiny leak, probably a hose connection is not tight.  Since I know gas will leak out I only put enough gas in it for one mowing session and last night it ran out.  It's on a slope and the bit of gas I put in it was not enough for it to fire up and get off of the slope, and then the battery was done cranking.    Could save myself frustration if I fixed the leak but I'm not positive that it's only a hose clamp and my to do list is always a yard long. 

I rode Tanza yesterday because he came up when I was trying to catch fat Sadie.   He was tender on the road, his feet are soft from all the rain we had so I couldn't tell if his hind fetlock was bothering, I think it was a bit.  I hope it will continue to heal and get to a point where I can take him trail riding.  Right now I feel like up and down hilly trails might be a bit much even just riding at a walk.  

I should ride Taj today,  I rode him 8 days ago and he was a good boy but he is getting out of shape.  I should have run to town and bought a wheelbarrow, and dropped off my old cart and some other scrap metal at the recycling place but it didn't happen.
