Good morning!!!!

You should talk to him about it, maybe he doesn't realise he's irritating some people.

Perhaps the pastor the man tells us about is like you, the sucky guy who pops in to chat on TBN and then disappears for unknown reasons....??? Just got home after spending time with the new lady friend in Flint. Very humid here, have to spray some ornamental trees because the Jap Beetles are beginning to swarm arpund here. Got 1/4" of rain here while I was away. My cats are bugging me terribly because they miss the outdoor time they get when I am home. Catch you all later after I take them out for a while. My post here yesterday was from my Droid, I really detest using it for internet access because of the tiny screen....gotta get me an Ipad....:laughing:

All that western Virginia and Ohio rain you fellas are getting was here for two weeks and retrograded due to a Bermuda high pressure system, which it's self is drifting away again and the rain will be back our way in a few days. We had 13" in June and already around 4.5 from July 1-3.

Church was ok, I guess he had a couple folks talk to him about last week. I've been pretty busy, so I usually get on here in the am or at night. Humid as heck here, Michigan in the summer!!

I don't know what our rainfall total is, but I have as many hours on my zero turn this year as I did all last year. I was only cuttin every other week, due to the lack of rain, now it must be cut every week, or it looks like a hayfield. And a pretty weedy one!! :")

Well, got about half my field mowed...then the Deere wouldn't shift out of reverse. Found the problem fairly quickly with minor dis-assembly. A pin had backed out of two pieces of linkage.
I used an allen wrench to "shift" into neutral so I could start the tractor, then "shift" into forward so I could get it to the house. After mowing about 2.5 or 3 acres in this heat, that was enough and it was definitely beer time.

Couple of pics....sorry about the abysmal quality, but Blackberrys aren't known for their cameras.




We own most of what you see in the pictures. The picture of the tractor facing the wooded section in the background...our house is on a rise behind the wooded area.

Wow!!! Pics are good, but I've never seen anybody display as many at once as that. Really cool. Looks like you are gonna get some seat time in your new place!!

Very nice, Roy! I know y'all are happy to be out there! Took you long enough to make the move! :laughing:

Actually, being a bit wet today was an advantage...less pollen and dust while mowing. The cutter was set at maximum height for a couple reasons. I had no idea what was under that brush and I reckoned a higher cut, then a followup would be easier on the vegetation.
I'll probably be able to use my finish mower after a few cuts with the 'hog.

Very nice, Roy! I know y'all are happy to be out there! Took you long enough to make the move! :laughing:

Yepper, we're pretty happy (well, I am...wifey is one of those "glass is half empty" types).
Great place in rural Vermont. You ever get up this way, we have 5 bedrooms...there will be a place for ya!

Be truthful..the pics suck!
I didn't know I could post that many either...news to me!

Yeah, there will be a lot of seat time, between the finish mowing (2.5-3.0 acres),chipping and monthly field mowing. As with much of the eastern seaboard, we have got a lot of rain and that grass is a'growin'!
