    Every time it goes up the mowed part of the yard gets smaller. At least thats a cost I can control.

    I picked up but haven't used much, a reel mower.
    Gotta start using that thing.
    Also need to shrink yard. Working on that too.

    My nephew lives there, also.

    Went up .20 today. It's $4.29/$4.24 at our Marathons...
    And we're going to be hauling more logs on my days off...:headbang::headbang:...thankful I filled up the other day, that 3/4 tank won't last long pulling the dump trailer though.

    Our local convenience store chain has gas for $4.39 gal.
    I heard an independent store about 4 miles from home had gas for $4.19.
    Went by there after work to fill truck and can for splitter.
    A wonderful surprise... 0622221857.jpg

    Sadly I'll fill my tank with diesel at that price all day every day and twice on Sunday. The best price here is $5.99. Some places are above $6. Now the deer corn...could I get a saw to run on that??

    Remember when Covid was super scary and people quit going places, so there was an oil glut and oil producers didn’t have enough storage space and the price of oil crashed? Some producers were paying to get rid of oil because they had no where to store it.
    Good times
    If only more people were happy just staying at home making firewood and wondering why the turkeys always cross the yard east to west.

    Ya might be a redneck if: yer local gas station sells deer corn.
    (And maybe alcohol, tobacco and firearms)?

    Up here gas stations team up with donut shoppes n such.
