What's a boy to do?


So what do you do when you choose to mow the lawn as your afternoon job and when you get outside to mow you realize that it is 90 degrees out there? You come inside sweating and asking if you can do another job - which you can't because there is now a stripe of mowed lawn in the front yard.

You have to be creative. You go to the freezer in the garage and pull out a half a block of ice. You tuck in your shirt and put the block of ice down your shirt. Smart......very smart. Guess who is still outside mowing the lawn - yep the creative almost 12 year old.
