    I'm hoping...I didn't have a lot of the usual assembly issues that many have had...about the only problem was some flashing that needed cleaned off the ports, easy enough to fix...that and a couple small inconsequential parts missing.
    here's a pic once done...Brand new ms 660

    Yeah, the guy who leases my dad's place gets a late start planting. The guy I lease to will be harvesting in about two weeks.

    Same Here! I ordered everything from Amazon except meat and dairy for years, EVERYTHING delivered to my porch til last year, now its USPS and we have the same mail boxes which means 1/2 hour to town, park, fight the wind and cold to walk to the post office, up a really long handicap ramp and wait in line, then haul all of it back to truck. No thank you. The oddest is when UPS shows up with one little tiny item from an order but the 50# box is at the post office. SMH, we have to go to the grocery store now.

    Was only out for an hour. Heard a lot of sirens. Probably someone hit a pole. No winners there.

    corn and soybean picking has been ongoing for about two weeks here.
    tobacco has been cut, spiked, and housed in the barn for curing.
    fall and winter is on the horizon.

    My boy has adopted it. It won't stay super clean until the end of October. We go through everything late fall, early winter so it ready to go early fall. It's usually cooler, it's hot, even in the woods today. I have an oak down and loaded the butt logs but said to heck with chunking it up. It can wait. We tried to only do stuff that didn't require a ton of manual labor today.

    Went to a 90th Birthday Open House for a long time friend of our family. Small town of 150. The party probably doubled the population. :)

    Hot and muggy here. Really zaps the energy. Did get some work started on dressing up the wood shed though.

    Just tacked up the last row on the right and temp placed the drip edge in place to see how it will look.

    You can see the old fence behind it, waiting it's turn to be replaced, once my bride gets the new boards stained. :)
