My Little Planet time-lapse videos. 1) Before the wind and rain, Red Rover went out to trim some branches over the driveway, recovered the air puppet scare crows from the back yard, and move some rolls of landscape fabric. Just as I finished, the rain started coming down and I got soaked. 2) Inside the garage to complete the assembly of the wire shelving units for the Canna tubers. I also started to assemble the DR Power tow-behind sprayer. Unfortunately, one of the factory installed bottom support connections had broken. I requested a replacement tank assembly.
