65° and light rain here this morning, and that was the high for the day. Weather app said it was just supposed to rain a bit this morning, but it ended up sticking around all day. Shot my chance at getting any mowing done today.
Bought a new "truck." Been looking for a long while at all the small and mid-size trucks, but none of them really tickled my fancy. One eventually started to grow on me, the Hyundai Santa Cruz. The dealer in Shiloh IL had a bunch of '24s that they had been using as service loaner vehicles, and once they reached 3000 miles would sell them at a substantial discount. Went yesterday to take a test drive, and ended up driving one home. Now, I have a car payment again.

Need to get some mowing done Monday, more rain forecast most of the coming week.
Hope everyone is well.
Good evening, gents.

good morning all
up early on a cool morning, only 46 out now, but going to be a nice Monday/holiday with temps in 70's
Paul, congrats on new truck. It gets good reviews, hope it works well. Now to figure out what all the new buttons do...
no plans for today other than possibly continuing to wax the car. Need to do that in the morning so sun isn't shining on car
lawn guys may show up this morning to put down some mulch for me. Which means I might head downtown this morning to pick up another
four bags, that should do it.
roses did not enjoy that big downpour for two days we had. Finally perking back up, time to start deadheading.
should be able to make a nice cut arrangement. I'd like to take that to aging MIL in nursing home.

Coffee has been poured. 40° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 72° with a few clouds. Garden looks very good after cleanup. Got Deuce & Half ready for today's parade. Cannot ask for better weather for parade. Sassy enjoys watching all the people waving as we drive by. Will finish day off with a BBQ at neighbors.
Good Morning All.
Big Thanks You to all the Veterans!!
Prayers for those that gave all.

Gratitude to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country and their families. Thank you for our freedom.
56 and a sprinkle going to 70.
PJ, congrats on the new truck. Looks sporty.
Nice Sassy pic.
Took Della for a hike and swim...first time in the water since surgery 2 weeks ago. Lots of dogs to meet along the way. Since this is a tractor forum and not a hiking forum, decided I better change the oil in my tractor. So much easier than my truck. With sunset so much later, we stayed outside too late and had dinner at 9pm.

wonderful pic Ron.
the deuce and a half you are referring to I bet weighs a little more than an Electra 225, deuce and a quarter...
perfect timing this morning and proved out a little negative reinforcement.
I looked out kitchen window/firing port... to see the first squirrel rounding the garden shed and headed for the feeders.
He looked up, saw the kitchen window opening, turned right around and so far has not come back.
funny how rest of the birds scatter when squirrel shows up.
they know the proverbial lead is going to fly...
I am very careful to make sure nothing else is in the way.
As soon as squirrels run away, whole flock of birds return.
I think they know I'm not going to hurt them but smart to get out of the action
cold out, just hustled out to put some fresh nut mixture down on ground, cardinals adore that, blue jays, brings
all the big birds in
and an all black bird with pretty thin orange stripes on shoulders
