AM: 7
PM: 7 (6.25 with Jon then did 1 lap around the fairground's grass) After dinner, I borrowed my neighbor's distant relative's tiller to turn over my garden. It started right away, I used it for 5 mins, then shut it down for a minute. It refused to turn on again. Seriously. 45 mins of trying everything I could think of including taking a break to eat a piece of cake. No go. In fact, I pulled so many times I pulled the pull cord right off the tiller. Shoot. After having to drill out the 4 rivets and pry them out with brute force, I was able to tie the robe back on. Now, to find a riveter and some rivets. A few phone calls and a trip to millville to see Dan (and to borrow his tool), I had it all fixed. After fixing everything, I gave it a good dozen tugs without the stupid thing starting and gave the tiller back just as it got really dark. Project failure.
