Harold finds the motor to be a bit boggy in the shallows

Harold’s method of tilling the garden leaves a lot to be desired.

His lawn is only 20 yards wide. If he did it in water, the journey would be over too soon.

And he wonders why he can’t get his boat up on a plane.

Unless he hits a sprinkler head, then it’ll be smoooooth sailing.

Nice wake

Early Ditch Witch.

Good morning Balladeers!

Yes, you probably will.

Although awash with optimism, Harold is left high and dry.

Two more front lawns and Harold will have gone the whole nine yards.

Harold, Harold, Harold, it’s the Mariana Trench, not your wife Mary Anna’s Trench…

( –‸ლ)

Publicly chagrined, Harold is nonetheless mighty proud of his new InnaRutt 3000™ motor.

Say that would make a great trenching tool.. I can think or one or two problems, but – - -

Here come the guys in white……..

“Hello? Triple-A? Say, Scooter and I could use a tow… rope.”

Soils prepared for that new hedge Martha’s been wanting

He must have an awful swampy yard!

You don’t get it… this is what he intended to do!

“… and you’ve had the hull repaired.”

Looks like he poured cold water on Harold’s plan.
