How Does Your Garden Grow?

The beginning of the week was freezing and on Saturday, we got a dusting of snow that never stopped snowing all day. A PITA snow because the couple of inches meant the walkway and stairs would have to be shoveled.

Icicle on the squirrel baffle and the feeders had to be filled again.

The back feeder filled and the Back Tundra

There was just enough snow so Himself could play with the Yarbo. Here's a very short clip of the robot on it's maiden voyage.

Our friend, Master Beef, said the robot needed a proper name. A gardener's name. There was Joshua, the gardener of the Garden of Eden and the only one that God talks to in the television series, Supernatural. Or Samwise Gamgee (the real hero ) from The Lord of the Rings. We decided Samwise had a nice ring to it. 

Himself had fun playing and controlling the Samwise from the relative comfort of the garage. Last week, he attended a demonstration as he had lots of questions particularly about the game controller which he couldn't seem to get to work though he was able to use his phone to control the robot. He controlled Samwise using his phone as he didn't want to spend a lot of time setting up the controller and he only wanted to see if he could get Samwise to move. Mission accomplished.

He also said, Samwise did as a good a job clearing the snow as the monster snowblower he used to have.
