Author's Notes: Written for the stargatedrabbles list's July 28th "Downtime" challenge. Unbeta'ed.
Jack gawked at his jungle of a yard. Scott, the kid who normally maintained his yard, and his family had been vacationing in Utah for three weeks and wouldn't return for another week at least. Since he and his team had been stuck on "PX8-who-give-a-flip" for two and-a-half weeks then spent five days in the infirmary, his yard -front and back- had gone untouched for nearly a month.
There was grass to mow, hedges to trim and weeds to pull for starters. Resigned to the long day of yard work ahead of him, Jack retrieved the mower and got started.
