Not much here either, except for flocks of Canada geese passing through on their way north and crapping everywhere.
I almost bought a tankless water heater for the new place when I moved last summer. The plumber I was using talked me out of it. As he said,...
Born and raised in west Michigan. We have had a cottage in northeastern lower Michigan for several years and love the area. This past summer we...
The water table here is about 8-10’ and a few places have 25’ wells with jet pumps. It’s nothing you’d want to drink though. That’s why one of my...
I used to be about 35 minutes from Holland but I moved to northern Michigan this past summer. Add about 4 hours to that number now. Maybe I...
2 or 3 inches on my own property since I have to do something with the brush anyway. If I’m elsewhere I try to not go smaller than 5 or 6, unless...
I have a Husky 150BT. Love it. I have a lot of red and white pines in the front of the house and hardwoods in the back. . It’ll blow the grass out...
Wiser words have never been written. The one and only time I needed the spare on my truck I had to cut the thing off the winch assembly....
The fuel economy meter in my daily driver (2016 Impala) is within 5-8% of actual. It calculates on the high side. The one in my 2005 Silverado is...
Here are a couple looking out over Lake Huron. One from back in mid October, another from last week during the cold snap. Both facing roughly the...
I had a decent sized red oak blow down in a storm this past summer (rotten in the middle, knew it’s time was coming but it wasn’t going to damage...
I’m about a mile from state land where cutting is allowed. I took a side trip to see if there was any chance of taking advantage of this and...
I had one in my former house between the living room and the bedroom closet. The cord plugged into an outlet in the closet so it wasn’t visible....
No idea how much snow we got here. If I had to guess, 6 inches or so. The wind has blowing been a steady 20 out of the east or so all day. They...
1 degree outside, wind chill a heck of a lot lower than that. 72 inside with a load of maple and oak in the Encore. Not a whole lot of snow, just...
Handy Andy was another one from back in that era. I only remember one of those on Plainfield Ave in Grand Rapids in the early 90s. I gave up...
I have an 05 Silverado (half ton gas engine, but might be close enough from the SRS standpoint) and had the same problem with the airbag light on....
Happy New Year everyone. Figured I’d stop by and say hi. I’m somewhat torn about not having a pellet burning appliance anymore. In a way I miss...
I spent 4.5 years back in high school/early college working in a gas station/repair shop that had full serve pumps. I bet I cleared $10 in tips...
This one is a Magnavox. Got it from a neighbor a while back for free. I have a pile of LPs and a hundred or so 8-tracks, so I figured what the heck.
