    What does that do?

    I need to call the Aunt up and see if she's even thought of it yet... But I saw a Pool in a front yard the other day... :D... I'm a guessing there will be a few more little pools pop up this year...

    Weight distribution hitch, like is used on the big campers, uses chains instead of bars. Easier to hookup. Had top reviews and recommendation from Camping World site. Last year bent the frame on the truck, got it fixed and extra support added, then the hitch finally got here. More happy hauling, I hope. Really helps with not squatting the truck. Handled the tractor on the trailer nicely.

    Morning everyone. Guess we had a bear in the yard last night. He left a calling card in the side yard. Might explain why my bird feeder is empty. Some how he managed to eat all the seeds without tearing the feeder down. Have a great day all.

    Our oriole feeder was empty this morning. Coons showed up during the night and cleaned both cups out. We will be bringing the cups in at night.

    Trap the coons in a Have A Heart and take them to someone you really don’t like...

    I have thought about using a live trap but we also have skunks in the area and I don't want to catch one of those. If I warn my wife ahead of time, I could introduce the coons to my Ruger. No one out in the country cares about a little noise during the night:thumbs:

    The next door neighbor actually seen it yesterday. It was going away from our property's. Every spring (we are 80 degrees so maybe summer) the bear takes my feeder out. Normally pulls it down but last night he managed to clean it out with out taking it down. So the feeder will stay empty for a few weeks.

    I always tied a small rope to the handle of my trap and stretched it about 20’ away. If I caught a skunk I would just roll the trap over and the skunk walked out.

    Beautiful day here. The pressure wand was a big hit. We got the cover off the pool, pump running, but it would not prime. Maybe a valve problem, put in a service call. IMG_20200524_21672.jpg

    Yes some to big to lift. Straighter pieces I was able to make manageable with X27.
    This score really gives us a decent amount of sugar maple. Hoping this will be for winter after next.

    Good morning everybody. Going up to the 80s again today, same for tomorrow. Then will be going back to the low 70s and high 60s. Humming birds are having their wars and doing a lot of chirping.
    Have a good day everybody. Stay safe and healthy.
