Good morning!!!!

KJC - $4500 for scaffolding, and I’m whining to Sophie about spending $450 to go with what I have.

I hate spending the money, but finding people to do work competently is tough. If I am going to DIY I need the proper tools. Mrs has seen my do some “questionable” things on ladders (see sig below) so she was insistent on my getting these. And I also had this Savings Bond in the safe-%deposit box from 1993… so it didn’t hurt so much

@RedNeckGeek - the experts say you can’t go .080” in a 66 Victor. I had acquired this cylinder/piston in a deal a while ago. The liner is the same thickness as a .040” over Gold Star and that is supposed to be the optimal size for power from that motor. So not sure why that thickness liner works on one but not the other. Guess I will find out.

Productive day today, we went shopping this morning. Then installed new rear tires and a deck spindle on one of the Craftsman garden tractors. Gonna need it in prime shape after all this rain, couldn’t hear the birds singing this morning, they were drowned out by the sound of the grass growing!

Everyone stay safe out there

I had the same problem this morning. But I noticed the "LOG IN" was present and then when I clicked on it I got in. I could get on the EV Thread but not the Morning Thread.

I logged out and back in, still not fixing it.

I'm on Apple laptop now, everything is working OK.

Browser or the iphone app? The app isn't working on some threads. I hate using browser.

Todays update will be short. Mowed entire yard, field, hill, along this side of creek.
power company trimmed trees, and cut down a large wild cherry along the creek.

Got tractor tire off the L3940 using my pallet jack, got disc changed, and tire back on. All by myself. Did not get the bad thread cleaned out. Not sure the tap and die I got is right size, cause a good bolt does not thread into the die, and the tap, starting it from the backside of the hole, doesn't seem to go in.
right now missing one lug bolt. No pics cause they are on my phone, and the app isn't working.

I'm on my IPad, no problems, but I'm also not using the app......

Accomplished the main objectives for the day, but too late to plant the trees. Helped (watched) wifey plant the underplantings around the first 3 that were done.

Supposed to have good chances of T-storms in the very early morning, approx. 05:00. May put a damper on planting tomorrow.....

Relaxing now, watching an interesting PBS show on song birds by David Attenborough. Next up is Nova, about whales.
