High 30s. 25 mph wind gusting 40. Power was off this morning before light. They had it back on 40 minutes later. They finally got off their dead asses and got the bunch of dead ash that used to take the power out every time the wind blew. They knew right where to go when it went out. Job...

The new one are getting worse by the year. Full of gimmicky unnecessary crap that breaks and take things away like grease fittings, dipsticks, keys that don't go dead and strand you etc. etc.

Trying to grease front end on my winter drive. 2003 Tahoe. All not bad to get to til I got to the pitman arm and idler. Figured I would change fittings to right angle. Fittings did not want to budge, so I struggled til I got things in the right position so I could loop the hose up and over...

My bud brought one of those back from Texas in the late 70s. He bought it from a small airport that had used it to tow planes and carry tools. Nice and solid. He kept it a few years and sold it to a friend. Have not seen it around recently.

I bought a Yamaha Big Bear recently. It had sat around. Carb did not look bad, so I cleaned it up and it would fire but not run. Rebuild kit, no run. Bought a cheap chinese. Same exact problem. I got thinking maybe it is not a carb problem. It had good spark and good fuel flow. Big money...

Been working in my creek. It just started flowing a couple weeks ago. My son lives about 1/2 mile downstream. It was still soaking in the creek bed between here and there. Might be flowing now.

Picture looks like it was taken from a low wing.

Your funning me! :lol:

Looks like an old one. My son owns a Super Cub. Flying is very cool.

What kind of plane?

I don't know a lot about it, but I know they use pins to fix cast iron heads. Not sure of the limitations. They drive tapered pins in and overlap them.

Ground venison makes the best chili I have ever had.

Obenauf's is good stuff. Used to use it on my Wolverine work boots. The leather lasted great, but the soles fall apart, so I quit bothering. I still buy them as they are light, comfortable, and I can get them on sale for just over 100 bucks I remember when I was about 7 my dad had a black...

Shopping for a new tractor seat. Wengers in Pennsylvania had one for $167 plus shipping. They had a number for the Deere equivalent. Wild ass guesses? $1100 and change.

Oh, and I meant to mention Cornell has an app you can put on your phone that will listen to the bird and identify it. It's amazing to just set your phone down and see how many birds it hears. Merlin is the app.
