    Kubota started right up and I scraped everything down good around the house. Full sun day! We have not had many of them over the last four months! Then I plowed out the whole camp road with the Kubota. Just in case I am able to get some more cheap fill. Nice day!

    Weekend off and I am not working a side job. :) Hope to do some wood cutting today along with some work with the Kubota. Can't get any better than that. I do have to take a break during the day though to go watch one of my son's basketball games. But that is a good thing. Today is the end of this season.

    Coffee is a rolling... :coffee:.... Still haven't figured out what my weekend agenda will be. All I know is have to get my truck down to the Uncles lift to check out the front Drivers side annoying sound/vibration while turning one way. Knowing probably what it is and hoping its not it. :confused: Have a Great Day Hoarders...

Snow, sleet and freezing rain predicted here the next 2 days. Everyone have a great day and stay safe. Those down and out with the "BUG" rest and get better...............................:thumbs::D

    It's going to be 53° here today. In February, for the second time this winter. Odd, just plain odd. I was out cutting wood last weekend in weather that wasn't quite as warm, and I sweated through my t shirt. I also had to deal with a great deal of mud with the ATV.

    If I do anything wood related this weekend, I'll probably just split haul and stack wood that I have already hauled from the woods so the mud will be minimal.
    We're taking the pups to the dog park. That will be enough mud I'm sure.

    Maybe I'll see this guy at the dog park that has 5-6 nice sized elm trunks standing in his front yard. The power CO topped then off a couple years ago, and wouldn't take the 15' tall trunks down. I've offered to cut and take away these dead trees in the past when I saw this guy walking his dog there, but he never said "sure come on over". He's a little bit of an odd old guy, but he's got a nice dog.

    It would be one of those easy drops, 1/4 mile away, probably about a cord total. I've got the trailer here, and a sharp gassed up saw. Surely now that big chunks of bark are dropping off of the trunks now in his front yard, he'll want them gone. He's already said it's an eyesore.

    Hopefully he's there today. I'll bring a business card with my cell # on it and a note that I'll cut down and take it for free.

    No, but I got home and had to bathe two extremely muddy Labradors.

    Is that a "win" ? Lol

    Well, so far so good. It looks like the inside of the wheel was rubbing the rubber that keeps water & dirt out of the engine area. I'm going to have to find a few push pins to get it put back into place. Right now it's been pushed back and out of the way. It's nice to have access to a lift makes things a lot easier to inspect and work on.

    Anyone else have trouble logging on or even opening the FHC website this evening???

    I even tried the "down for everyone or just me" website search a couple times!
