Rude shrub

This bush is in front of the building I work in, and I've wondered ever since I started working here if we have a disgruntled gardener!

I got to go up on top of some tanks today to photograph an accident site and will be going up again shortly, if the welders have left. We believe the accident (not too serious, by the way) was caused by a faulty weld.

We've got a quiet weekend planned -- a couple of projects around the house along with the usual laundry. My accordion group is performing at the Solano Avenue Stroll on Sunday, so I will be making a trip to the bay area.

I often take a golf lesson on Sunday mornings, but I'm going to have to skip this week. My ballet class starts up again for the fall on Monday, so I'll probably be limping around and whining about my sore muscles next Wednesday, or so.

I got a new (to me) washer and dryer yesterday. They're Maytags. I've got to figure out how to disconnect the old washer this weekend. The connections are very corroded. I did managed to move the old dryer out, but I'll need help with the washer. Much heavier! I guess washers have more guts than dryers...
