Kilroy, link did not work
I'm at 14,500; no need for CDL but way more than 4 ton limits on local steel bridges.

Yeah, you cannot go over Dingman’s Ferry Bridge!

Good morning, 48 now going to 71 today with no rain in the forecast

Up early due to booster shot yesterday but should sleep well tonight.

Cleaned up around the trash can at the road. Seems someone is dumping trash loose into the can and when the trash truck tips it to offload it spreads out on the ground. Will change to bring it up to the road on the morning of to see if that will help. Hopefully the culprit has found an easier mark by then.

Heading up to Messicks this morning and will use a new way to get there. It may be a longer ride but should be pretty.

I am glad that Buppies and Drew are feeling better.

Will se if there will be time to cut some grass later today. And wife wants to continue some planting in her patio containers

Good Morning
49 and going to top 70 under a cloudless sky today.
Yesterday didn’t follow any plan, no breakfast with professor, mowing or RC flying was accomplished. Did get some cleanup done, and installed an RC simulator on my computer. Spent a little time with grandson and Zoe.

Today will be breakfast with the professor, and hopefully some of the things that I didn’t get to yesterday, I’ve got to get to the little airplane as it needs some work as well. And tonight is an Airport Authority meeting.

My 2500 ram will not go over that bridge over 8000 pounds.

A lot of cat equipment has Kubota engines in them skid loaders mini ex rollers etc. Cat cannot meet emissions with their own motors

Feel better soon m7040

I understand that Bobcat is using them, too.

And here’s a guy who did something interesting with a Kubota diesel:

Good. morning! 67˚F, cloudy, had 1/10" rain yesterday it just kept going around us.

Fie wise went well used the pole saw a lot with 14 people there I did not have to stack limbs, someone was there after each cut - nice.

I can't figure out the fuel leak in the chainsaw so I'll take it in to see if the ace hardware man can figure it out. While there I'll check out the 16" EGOs. I saw a good deal on-line at ACE but when I went to check out the shipping charge was over $200 - more than the chainsaw.

EGO POWER+ CS1613 16 in. 56 V Battery Chainsaw Kit (Battery & Charger) Mfr# CS1613 - Ace Hardware

The EGO POWER+ 16" Chain Saw features an advanced, high-efficiency brushless motor that delivers power equivalent to a 40CC gas chainsaw without the noise, fuss, or fumes. Powered by any EGO POWER+ 56V ARC Lithium battery, this cordless chainsaw delivers up to 220 cuts on a 4x4 when used with...

Today I get crowned like Drew but I get double crowned. I hope the dentist had a good nights sleep. Maybe he will use his fee to buy a tractor instead of a pool.

Buckeye, I had to order my EGO tiller attachment from Amazon.

Kilroy Bobcat is owned by Daedong sp the same company that owns Kioti. The parent company used to build Kubota tractors for Kubota then started making their own looks a lot like Kubota big law suit resulted

Morning all, 43 going up to 72.
Pool is open, put in a few more hours of weed whacking.
Today is planting tomatoes, flowers and seeing if radishes are ready.
Son is now member of NEHS and his eloquent response when asked how the ceremony was, "mid"

Found my wheelbarrow is very rusted, so wire wheeled, cleaned and painted.
Didn't have exact paint match, but it's a wheelbarrow.

RS - just be careful where planting burning bush. We have hundreds of them now. and some up to 15'. But not too hard to eradicate if you catch them early. I use the pole saw to trim them as they get a bit knarly when large. Looks amazing in the fall though.

Mostly - Carp slime, sounds like a great b movie name

M7040 - after last issue with trash, I now have a gamecam up in a tree aimed at the cans. That problem seems to have gone away now.

Well back to the day job, big meeting to get some approvals in a bit.

Be Well,

Oil filters a new can of worms cat oil filters best of best so they say but read fine print mostly made by Donaldson or Wix who ever wins the bid. I like Amsoil filters then Donaldson and Wix. Side note Amsoil do not make their own filters but bid out per their own specifications as does Cat

I am in the same boat with Ford F350 dually. Sprinter may get by if lightly loaded

Good Morning!!!! 51F @ 4:45AM. Sunny. High 77F. Winds S at 5 to 10 mph.

Yesterday was good for painting weather wise, but the contractor kept me busy taking lights and hose reels off the house, which saved them some masking time and resulted in a better paint job, too. They got about half the base color on, and will probably finish that today. One guy spraying, two guys leveling it out with rollers to get the paint into the fine cracks that had developed in the stucco. They'll do the trim with rollers and brushes, I'm told.

We moved the van to a spot next to the parts car, then wrapped both in plastic. Went to use the tractor to bring up some rocks to hold down the plastic and rolled the front left tire off again. I thought a new valve stem would cure the leak in that tire, but apparently that was not the only thing leaking. Once they finish painting the front of the house, I'll limp it back to the garage by dragging the forks to keep the flat off the ground. And try to find the leak.

Jumped in the side-by-side to gather up the rocks and found one of the back tires was flat, too. So that's on today's agenda as well.

Hump Day already!

Interesting article on mental illness, probably won't be going away anytime soon.

Young Men at Highest Schizophrenia Risk From Cannabis Abuse

Cannabis use disorder is a major modifiable risk factor for schizophrenia at the population level, particularly among young men, new data show.

Thanks, our son is diagnosed schizophrenia however he had it since young but they don't diagnose for that before older. He went through many hospitalizations as a child but they were always careful not come out and say directly what his diagnosis was.

Poured first cup of coffee. 39° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 77° with mostly cloudy skies. Got some weeding done around gardens. Did not get weed killer down. To much wind. Maybe get it done today. Plan to mow grass after it dries.
New cleanup crew around feeders.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

Ron- Yesterday I counted 43 Blue Jays and there were probably more with all the BJ activity. They were not making a lot of noise so I suspect that they were migrating Jays. No one knows why Blue Jays migrate; only they do.

Did not know that - I know at one point Bobcat was owned by Ingersoll-Rand, didn’t know it went to furn owners…

It looks like that wildfire smoke plume has shifted south of southern NE and it was a calm and clear 32ºF for this morning's low temperature. Currently it is a sunny 56ºF and I expect clear skies, a high temperature ~70ºF this afternoon. I am still at a puttering around stage with Spring cleanup activities.

Mrs. and Mr. Baltimore Oriole at the orange rack this morning. Last year We had 2 meeting pairs here.

Kilroy, that little Saturn doesn't have enough power to get out of its' own way. None the less, an interesting experiment.

Don't you hate it when you go to a hospital and ask for a diagnosis and the evasive ba$t@rds won't give a direct answer. That would be especially hard on the wallet in the 'States.

Jay, Blue Jays migrate because it is too cold for them in the north. They don't have too much fat on them and the food sources aren't there for them.

Chevy made a production car years back (I forget the model) with a tiny 3cyl gas engine - I thing the Saturn beats it hands down!

“Back in the day” when the 610 was new they used Wisconsin engines and had clutches rather than hydrostatic drive. That was when it was Melroe. Later they went to Hydostatic drive and mostly Kubota engines during the Ingersol years, then when the Koreans took over, they switched to their own engines.
