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.

Time-lapse videos working outdoors and using Red Rover. 1) Switching front loader on Red Rover to pallet forks, filling Red Rover with diesel (5 gallons after 12 hours of use), moving the pallet of wood delivered by Home Depot. The pallet was too heavy for Red Rover to lift. I had to transfer four sheets of 4′ by 8′ of plywood to a different pallet, then move the pallet. The remaining eight sheets of 4′ by 8′ of plywood were transferred on Red Rover’s forks to the plywood pallet. The remaining 4″ by 4″ and 2″ by 4″ posts remained to be moved on another day. 2) Building Storage Logic (10′ x 10′) storage shed 2. This time was faster and easier than the first storage shed. Experience, and no wind. Still it took longer that the 2 hours for 2 people to assemble the shed…
