After having gone several weeks with little to no seat time, finally got some time to do some much needed work on our gravel road. Took some pics to share. After a lot of much, much needed rain last week, then Ernesto coming through, had some big ruts washed into our road. Our road is "crush...

Buddy walked outside to leave and came running back in saying there was snake across the walkway and he could not get out of our office :rolleyes: . This is in Durham/Chapel Hill. Said it "looked" poisonous but was not sure. He asked the secretary to call security and I went with him to take a...

Anyone have any advice or tips for building a rose bed. Wife has decided she wants to start rose gardening and I am all for it. She does have a bit of a green thumb – got it from her Dad, that man could grow a tomato on a rock – I like roses and the house needs more flowers/color around it...

Latest North Carolina trooper patrol bikes.... I think North Carolina wins for the coolest highway patrol motorcycles

Took this for the John Deere guys. Was one of the decorations at the North Carolina state fair here in Raleigh. Was hard to keep my tongue in mouth and from slobbering all over myself. I could think of better decorating though - sitting at my house with a FEL for starters! There was no...

I think my starter has gone bad on my Jinma 454 LE. Looking for confirmation, other tips and any help on replacing a starter – if needed. Have never replaced a starter… Over the past few months I have noticed that on occasion when I turn the key, I would hear a “click” each time the key was...
