    Thanks brother!!!!!

    I'll be checking this tomorrow night. I'll have my wife "drive" it while I look at the axle shaft. So if I'm following you, I'll look at the outside of the rear wheels and should be able to see the axle spin if this is the case?

    I got my lawn mowed tonight though after work with this bad boy that my neighbor let me use. Simplicity Prestige 52". product1-lg.jpg

    Holy crap is that an expensive tractor!

    Efi, a dash with gauges, tach, led deck height and electric motor to raise/lower the deck, a beer holder and 12v power port , power steering.
    It's very nice, but I can think of a lot better ways to spend that amount of cash.

    I also weed wacked with the Ryobi trimmer tonight.

    While I was cutting the lawn, my wife worked on training the dogs with our new e fence I installed the other weekend.

    Probably get the push and rider mowers running today...maybe even give them a test run back and forth across the lawn. And back and forth and back and forth....no later than Thu by any means.

    Practice makes perfect! Should have someone watch your firm and give you pointers on how to improve too. :)

    Walk was great this morning. We weighed the dogs and it is obvious they have spent the winter under the covers instead of walking. They went with us this morning and had a great time.

    I made two deliveries of Leeks to Massena and shot the chit with a few friends. Once I finally came back we put in some wood we had hangin between 2-4 years.

    In the first picture, I only took the dry stuff and the stuff in picture 0221-1 was all dry.

    I got several miles in on the walk. You can see a couple of fisherman down below, the level where I took the last picture, were enjoying the late afternoon fishing challenge. One had a nice Walleye up on the bank that he showed me when I asked him if he was having any luck.
