What is that, a metal building with awnings and the roof totally burned off? Yikes! Good view, if it weren't too hot.

A old 2-1/2 story brick building, fire was in the crawl space between the top floor apartments and the old flat roof, had a very good head start before anyone knew about it.

We had a local farmer mowing around his farm bank on his 0 turn mower also. It rolled over into the pond on top of him. He wasn't so lucky[/QUOTE] are the zero turn mowers bad on steep slopes. I was looking at buying one but I have sleep slopes.

I tried to change the oil in my 3005 last night. Oil was no issue. New filter, not so easy... wrong one. Guess new oil with an old filter is better than doing nothing. I'll get the right filter next week, might bump up the next oil change a few hours...

I don't often have the chance to get my tractor into the yard, without the wife throwing a fit... today, I had both in the yard, tearing out an overgrown weed patch, formerly known as a flower bed... took the mmm off the BX, and put the back blade on. After prying loose the landscaping blocks around the edge and hauling them off with the 3005, and using it with the loader to dig out the old shrubs and dirt mound, then the lil bx with the blade did a nice job of smoothing things out. Finished up around dark, so no pictures of the end results... better luck tomorrow.
The hope is that with the flower bed gone, the driveway can be extended and parking area expanded to beside the house. There is a door on that side that we don't use, with a nice little room just inside, perfect as a mud room entry area... down side is that it then goes into the formal dining room that is "off limits" to everybody... kinda like the "good living room", with white carpet and the wife's porcelain dolls... (half the first floor, the kids and I aren't alowd in!)
Parking closer to the house will be nice, even if we still use the back door like we currently do, the walk will be cut by more than half... but I'm still gonna be stuck parking at the barn lot. At least it will eliminate the wife's car and excursion blocking each other in, with the expansion, side by side parking will be possible.

consider yourself lucky you have something lighter weight like a BX; my front R4s try to imprint in a hurry
if I have any weight in the bucket during the wetter winter season. I just wish, as do many of us, that Kubota had put a larger tire on the front,
just a little more flotation. At least on my L. I'd like an M front tire on my L...the rears aren't a problem. Tiptoe through the wet tulips...
Rototilled the one acre sunflower patch a few days ago, really want to get the tiller off the back of the tractor for other jobs pending but I have real problems dealing
with the pto shafts, getting them on mostly. Bad arthritis, lack of grip in right hand and arm. And you all know that sometimes they just don't line up and you
get covered in grease, which immediately leaps onto your clothes, and you are wedged down there with sweat dripping off your face, and well, I think we've all been there. I really need another tractor...or two. I have a big fireman helper today, even he has a few choice words for pto shafts when they don't slide. And I lube the heck out of them. They sure haven't improved them any since the beginning of time, have they? Though I think JD has some quick attach customization.
Yes, don't change something that works, but I'd like the Good Grips version please.
