Tiller leaking gas - repair

 I wanted to till the garden today however noticed a drop of gas dripping every 30 seconds. Found the hose from the tank to the carburetor cracked. Had a length of that size gas hose in my supplies and was able to replace the hose costing about 1/2 hour. Garden is now tilled. Tiller started on second pull, again.

Gutter repair

 Another woops. Thanks to the snow load. That gutter has been there for 47 years and now it decides to come loose. Time to gather tools and screws. I do not climb on ladders much anymore but to reach this I only need to climb 10 feet and the shed dormer roof is very low pitch.

The job is done. It was not too difficult. I am cautious and did not push the envelope in anyway. Saved my energy and did the task in the warmth of the afternoon. I climbed up on the shed dormer which adds 1/2 story to the house. The climb is on a ladder and the access is through a skylight. I need to get through a 13-inch opening on the narrow point which I can still do. Anyway, I added some screws to the gutter which has been in place for 50 years and is still in good shape. All is fixed.
