Thanks Ed.

We visited and took a private tour of the original Sun City outside Phoenix in February, 1990. In fact we were staying in the Paradise RV Resort in Sun City that month. Del Webb has built some interesting places. They also have one on the east side of Lake Lewisville in this area (Frisco, TX).

Good morning to all! 52 this morning, up to about 86. Partly cloudy so temp not too bad. No rain forecast, but what else is new.

Still no return call from the ortho doc....so no PT. Too bad. Had a bunch of errands to do this morning....got them all done. Back to the fence this afternoon for a little bit. Have to cut down and rebuild the gate.

Don, congrats on the sale of your place, and I hope you have a fantastic experience moving to Sun City. I had worked for Pulte Homes, which is the parent company of Del Webb. They build a very high quality home. Whipper will fit in just fine!

BEF, that's not a bad price for a repair kit. There are a few YouTube videos showing the repair, might not be too hard...

Randy, glad to hear that the SIL issue wasn't too serious...prayers still sent.

Drew, maybe offer the lady some quiet / peaceful time in the garden with you? (Listening to the sprinklers):cloud9::shhh:

David, try to stay dry and out of harms way...any issues with acid rain or ash where you guys are at?

Prayers out to all needing them, always positive thoughts for you guys. Have a great day!

Here's a couple of pics of the fence cut down to 3'. The gate looks kinda funny sticking up at the 6' mark. Wifey did a fine job cutting all the 'dog ears' back on the 3 footers. Don't know exactly how many there were, but it was a lot. Only 2 more sections to go, but they're behind a big Lilac bush. At least now we can see all the landscaping done over the years.

Can't believe we went from nothing out here to our oasis today. Hopefully someone will appreciate the work involved when we sell it next year (hopefully).

Tufftorq emailed me back, they only sell the axle kit, not individual axles. Think i will try to repair it myself at $180 for the kit. Ebay guys selling axles are probably the side they didnt need from the kit. Kit includes both axles, seals, 3 qt fluid, filter.

BEF, suggest you remove opposite side wheel and take a hard look at that axel before making your final decision. You could suffer same problem, on that side, in the future.

Our daughter and son in law that just bought property decided that even with the TLB they got, it would be very nice to have a Gravely rider around (I offered them one of my 3). Move some things around, put the forks on the Kubota and lifted the Gravely out of its resting place (at least 5 years it had sat there). Aired up the tires, put some gas in, charged a battery and it started right up (some starter fluid to get it firing to pump some gas, then ran fine)...

Felt good that maybe someone will get some use out of one of the Gravelys. It has a Kwik Way loader on it with custom ballast platform and about 300lbs weight out back.
