Good morning!!!!

[Eric Salop]

8C/46F at 9:00am and not set to rise above 12C/54F all day. Come on spring, time to practise warming up a little, it's almost summer.

You can add my name to the list of those having problems with lawn mowers. Ours is a Grillo Climber 922, really more of a ride on brushcutter than a fine finish lawnmower. We got it pre-loved early last year with 33 Hours on the clock. This week it started making a lot of noise when the cutter deck was engaged. I did a quick check, expecting a blade tip to be loose and out of balance, but nope everything beneath the deck looked fine. With rain on the way, Julie got out the old faithful push Hayter, now about to celebrate something like it's 32nd birthday. It's little Briggs & Stratton engine is still going strong after all these years and the aluminium deck is almost like new.





RNG How nice of BMW to send love letters. Wonder if Ford send flowers, or Volvo vehicles receive Valentines.

Drinking first cup of coffee. 67° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 76° with thunderstorms throughout the day. Need to take tow equipment off car we traded in. That should keep me in the barn out of the storms.

I started mowing when I got home yesterday afternoon...bugs were too thick. I'll finish mowing later this morning, weather permitting.

67 now headed to 90 with a 50% chance of afternoon rain. Gee I could predict that weather in FL during the summer. First cup of coffee before I hook up the flat bed trailer and drive a couple of hours east to pick up an Oak Amish horse cart I found on Craigs List.

73 this morning and headed to 87 today. 80% chance of rain this afternoon. Had somethings come up yesterday and wasn't able to finish the loader repair. So maybe today. Weather has cleared out for next week so it's time to start rolling hay. Today's to do list involves chickens, loader repair and truss build.

Farmer, looking good on that bucket. Makes you wonder how the factory could let something that fragile get out the door in the first place. I was gonna guess that the second ground lead was for a plasma cutter, but your answer makes more sense.

Actually it wasn't the factories fault. The loader and tractor are both older than me. It's a Dunham-Lehr loader. It's not the first time it's been welded on but it is the most extensive repair its had. Im thinking it's about 40 years old and rust hasn't been it's friend. The bucket is all 11 ga. Plate. My repairs are with 10 ga. as that's what I had. Just slightly thicker.

I'm hoping to have a different loader tractor by the end of the year so maybe this one won't have too feed hay next winter.
