Was trying to start my Kuboto 2800 (not hydro-stat) jumping it off as usual because its been weeks since I've used it. I was using one of those portable battery thing and it wouldn't start it so and the last thing I heard was from the starter. Sounded like when the starter won't quite turn, just...

I could see these views through the trees and using a 15X zoom you can see a power line pole. The power co. had a problem with buzzards roosting on the cross member and the poop collected on the slanted insulators underneath. It caused a short in at least one pole so the got these plastic pipe...

I also moved my fanny flag and mounted a tool box on bar behind seat.

Wondered if anyone has this condition or has found a cure for it. I was told the small water blisters on the sole of my feet were there because my feet don't sweat. It started several years back on one foot and would reoccur a few times a year. It's now on both feet and reoccurs nearly...

I live 13 miles south of Tuscaloosa where the tornados have knocked out the power for many including me since Thursday morning and we're not expecting to get power till Tuesday. We have a generator and the rural water system is still supplying water but we were really missing the hot water. So...

I had to replace the transmission sight glass (plastic) on my L2800 so I went by the dealer. They had a tractor they were running a special on. It was an L3200. It's a new model replacing the L2800 and the L3400 based on what the salesman told me. Every thing is exactly the same except the 32...

I recently had my van wired so I could plug my utility trailer to it. When I was unplugging it after using it today I noticed the plug on the van was very hot. It has slightly bulged from the heat. The van lights work normally as do the lights on the trailer. It's a converter and was installed...

Talk about pests! For most of the summer we've had centipedes. Small ones about 1 inch long. I've read that the were migrating after the use up the food where they hatched from eggs. Every evening the carport would be full of hundreds crawling aimlessly. A cool night every now and then would...

I bent the right tie rod (the one with the adjustment) on my Kubota L2800 for the third time over a 2 or 3 year period. So I am having it straightened for the third time. They heat it and straighten it for 5 dollars. I wondered if it gets weaker each time and if I reinforced it by sliding some...

I've got an ATV that my three granddaughters poke around on together on my trails in the woods. It has a big rack on the back with a flat section over the rear fender area which is big enough for them to sit. There are some hills I have to stop at and let the girls off because their weight...

While I slept last night a rural church 3/4 of a mile from me was burned down. If I had been outside I could have seen the flames. The church was burglarized Monday night and they had a couple of people checking it out last night. They saw the smoke when they opened the door and two of the pews...

I finally got around to reading some letters I brought home from my mother's house after she died a year ago last Thanksgiving. The letters and receipts were mostly from my uncle to his mother (my grandmother) when he was in the Marines from 1940 through the end of the war. He was 28 years old...

Since the dealer doesn't stock it I'll have to order it anyway does anyone know where I can order a gland nut for my LA463 front loader on line. A limb fell on it just right and broke the threads on it.
