Drew, have you checked under bed for pump.
yes, no joy
but I did find it
tech from EQ systems called, said units are installed on frame rails about half way between axles.
no wonder I couldn't find it.
will have to crawl.
I think Dennis had it right.

at least I got good purging instructions and found out where level of oil should be when done

Good Morning Ron,
Maintenance people would come to assist me after working on the Banbury Mixers. That black dust did not wash off easily
Yep, that Lamp Balck was so fine it would get in your pores, and was very difficult to remove! I can’t even imagine how many of those mixers the company sold and also how many different sizes there were ! They made a lot of money at that line of machines !
We also manufactured roll grinders, continuous mixers, sugar cane mills, amongst others ! I worked there a total of 13 1/2 years before branching out into the paper handling business ! First at Automation Machinery and Development and the the last 20 at Pitney Bowes building prototype mailing equipment !

Good morning! Low of 56°, heading to 88°. Sunny, light breezes.

LFN, wow, same temps here in the high desert as you in the great north! I'm sure you are a lot greener and have a lot more trees.....

BIL returned to port in San Francisco Bay this morning. He enjoyed the trip immensely.

Daughter called late yesterday afternoon.... GD had bad abdominal pain. Yep... appendicitis. Surgery was done around 18:00, successful recovery. Should be home later today. Always something.....

Still didn't get the yards mowed. Heading out shortly to get done today. Then another PT session this afternoon. Not sure if its doing any good. Half way through the prescribed amount of sessions.

Everyone have a great day!

Was already 80F with sunny skies @ 10:00, now up to 89F ... feels like 100F ... 🤬

LWS claims the high yesterday hit 95.5F ... :oops:

Got plants/seeds on shelves watered first thing yesterday.

Then headed over to friend's to pick up the rest of the poles and chain-link fencing.

That ended up being pretty grueling ... in the sun + 2 rolls of fencing which was all tangled up and had a large multi-flora rose growing up through it ... 🤬

We got it loaded though, I managed to secure the rear doors on the van - which wouldn't close all the way - with a chain and ratchet strap.

Made it back home without incident and parked the van in the shade. Not messing with unloading it.

After that I decided to do some watering since it was in the shade ... :giggle:

One full Buffalo deployed ... split between the north end of the east planting bed, and the south end of the northeast planting bed.

Once that was done I hauled the WB around back to be refilled. May do that later today.

Woman picked up some Walleye yesterday that the local grocery had in their ad and was preparing that for dinner along with onions, squash, and bell peppers season with fresh rosemary.

While She was doing that I spotted 2 of the young woodchucks out back grazing over on the west side.

Grabbed the 12 gauge and carefully removed the screen in one of the master bedroom windows and got the window cranked open enough to get off a shot.

Plugged one of the two @ 20 - 25 yards ... he did not make it back to the burrow.

Threw the pitchfork in the dump cart and headed around back to collect him and then hauled him up to the compost/woodlot for the buzzards.

Dinner was very good, ate all the fish.

After dinner I headed around back and started working on the remain cabbage and broccoli and got all those planted.

I think the total ended up being 30 cabbage and 33 broccoli but I'll need to verify.

Attic fan just kicked on.

I think the only actual plants left at this point (beyond The Woman's herbs) are 8 Long Cayenne peppers and 9 Eggplant.

Have 8 holes left in the 2 rows I used for the cabbage and broccoli ... so one or the other may go there. But that won't happen until late this evening after the area is in shade.

Vertical trellis row with the indeterminate tomatoes is still in shade, will be heading out here in a few to get that soaker hose placed and pinned down and give those a good watering.

Then figure out what to do with the rest of the day.

Hope everyone is having a decent Monday ... (y)

Good Afternoon RS,
Nice shot !
Plugged one of the two @ 20 - 25 yards ... he did not make it back to the burrow.
If they are in the right direction in the field, I can use my Ruger 22/250 if not pointed in the direction of any houses ! Close range the Remington 1100 20 ga works well ! The scoop them up in the bucket and drop them on the south side of the property! The coyotes will take them away overnight !

Temp in the shade is 92 and in my man cave 76°F. Comfortable.
Good morning! Low of 56°, heading to 88°. Sunny, light breezes.

LFN, wow, same temps here in the high desert as you in the great north! I'm sure you are a lot greener and have a lot more trees.....

Everyone have a great day!
And a lot LESS rattle snakes.
Pass on get well soon to your GD.
