My lawnmower works so much better, now that I finally changed the air filter after 8 years. I guess Craftsman knows what they’re talking about when they say to change it after 25 hours of mowing. A good $8 investment.

As a high school graduation present, I took The Drewsk on a trip to Paris/London/Rekjavik (we flew IcelandAir). Between Paris and London we rented a car and did a loop through Normandy and Brittany.

That was a moment.
