    Just took down a couple small pear trees for her aunt, they also want me to take their mulberry down, leaving a 5'foot stump to bush up for them. Twist my arm...

    Went out and cut a little wood. Unfortunately it was with my lawnmower, I hit a piece of wood and broke about 4 inches off one of the blades! :headbang:

    Very good Oslo! I talked to the kids and we told my wife we are taking her out to wherever she wants to go shop when I get back from working tomorrow. 4ish. That way she can pick what she wants. She thinks she wants to go to the Nursery that is close by. Cool. Then taking her out to dinner.

    Some friends came over and helped me work one of the beef herds today. All went well except for the bull getting out on the road and then fighting my truck.:(
    Should have bought a better grill guard.

    I've never been, I think that's why she chose it. We will have the boxers with us so I'm sure what we do will be limited.

    You bet, 2000lbs of po'd muscle can tear up alot. I've heard of bulls flipping 30-40hp tractors too.

    Don't know how much damage your bull caused, but I know it can be a lot. A local farmer's herd got out (it was more unusual when they weren't out) and were just starting the blast across the road to a nice garden they pretty much destroyed… I was coming along with our pick-up. I hit the brakes and was stopped, but as you know, you can't roller-skate in a buffalo herd… they kept coming and really slammed into the front of the truck… one so hard it bounced off and fell down. $3500 worth of belted galloway fun…

    Every year, Mom's Day has turned into a "1st trip to Longfellow's", a local flower and plants place. Went there yesterday and got a bunch of stuff that makes my honey smile… :D

    Time to install air conditioners. We suffered last year. They think it might get above 60 this summer… ;) Cool is betterer.
