    Liking the forecasted high temperatures; into the 60's. Sadly, looks like more rain too.

    I topped off the hydraulic oil in my tractor yesterday. It was about 2 -2.5 qts low. Glad I checked and topped it off. It uses 5w-30. I had a small leak from the drive selector. I noticed one of the hydraulic fittings was loose, so I tightened that up. Hopefully that fixed it. If not, it's probably the o rings. Those are cheap.

    I do need to do a hydro fluid change on it, it takes a big automotive oil filter, the same as my old 5.0 mustangs used.

    A buddy has a Dakota from around that age, but his is a 4x4. It's super low, but that's just how it came. He put bigger tires on it, and it's still very low.

    Woke up to the same dark dreary sky and attempting to rain. By afternoon the sun was peaking through finally. :D:D


    Manage to drag 4 rounds up from the bottom of the hill and a few smaller rounds until my back said, "No more you old fool." That flipping rounds up the hill end for end is a crock, Only a few more worth bringing up. I think I could carry them with log tongs if I noodle them. On the books for tomorrow.
    Bottom ground where my woods are is to wet to do any cutting.
    Picked up the yard in preparation for mowing tomorrow. Predicted to get to a high of 54 tomorrow.

    Nah. Sensitivity training for becoming a moderator!

    It is quite an involved probation period, not for the faint hearted!

    Right about now. Once there's no more freezing at night, or really when it starts hitting 60°. So I'll probably start next week.

    You can try it. But a lot of the streaming stuff I see says it needs 8 Mbps or better so you might have just enough.
