New Hedge Trimmer






Isn't it just beautiful?!

IT'S AWESOME!




I'm not allowed to use the bigger hedge trimmers,
not allowed to use the chainsaw,
not allowed to use the big power lopper.
DUMB!

"Why Not!" I protest.
"Because you'll cut your finger off
or you'll electrocute yourself when you trim the cord!"
Oh, it could happen I guess.
RATS!



I've been thinking a small trimmer might work.

What harm could I do with a small one?
DUH!


We actually tried one little trimmer.
It was so cute, tiny, 4 inches.
It was yellow.
COOL!

It lasted five minutes,
then jammed.
MAN!


Just on 1/8th of an inch stem!
It had stripped the nylon gear.

STUPID!


T realized the main gear was made out of plastic.
It was too weak.
WEAK!


My new trimmer is tough!
Metal gears!
Cuts 1/4 inch stems.
Sometimes even bigger ones...
I found out accidentally on purpose...
Don't tell T.

OOPS!


Manual trimming has been more my forte.
I do get exhausted after one bush.
Then I get blisters,
and strained hand muscles.
With surpervision,
I tried out my new trimmer; easy!
Soon I was on my own.
COOL!


Success!
RAD!

I never quite realized
I use so many exclamations!!
WOW!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
