Drew, maybe easier to replace with a prehung door if a standard size. If not, maybe modify the opening to accept a standard.

Pretty good day. Flail worked great with new belts and tension bolt. Got a couple hours of my regular mowing.

Switched out flail to rotary and another few hours bushhogging. Some new cutting but mostly 2nd cut, already a foot high in places, but mostly grass growth, not the viney stuff. Still thick enough to bog down at times. Quit just as rain started.

RNG, sorry the Van front end alignment didn't happen, but clearly you are on the down slope. Is the vibration problem solved or is the mechanic waiting to the the tire wear fixed?

He found that the bushings that support the front differential were badly distorted and cracked, and that effects the alignment of the input shaft for that differential. So new bushings have been ordered. The alignment could also be contributing, but we won't know until it's done. Didn't happen today, either. My mechanic. Boy, he really knows how to pick 'em. Birds of a feather I guess.:banghead:

Glad you've got your vertigo under control, MG. A friend of mine's wife had to give up motorcycling because she didn't know when and episode would start, and the back of a motorcycle isn't a very good place to be when it does.

And I love cruise control.

Me too Bird. It makes driving without inadvertently breaking the speed limit so much easier. Have you tried a car with adaptive cruise control, where it automatically keeps a safe distance from the car in front ? It took me a while to trust what I first thought was a gimmick, but now I wouldn't buy a vehicle without it. So far I've had a Honda, Toyota and Subaru with this. All worked well, Subaru the most user friendly.

Not quite so sunny today, though that's even better for me today as I will be spending a few hours cutting and splitting firewood.

Thanks for those growing tips Jim. Microwaving chestnuts sounds sacrilege, but I suppose like a lot of things in life, you shouldn't knock it unless you've tried it. When I was a kid the chestnuts would be roasted below the oven grill. I would often "forget" to fork holes in one or two, he resultant minor explosions were well worth the telling off.

Bups, you've had more than your fair share of skin cancer without now finding it down your rear cleavage. Good luck - if anyone can cope with that calmly, it's you. At least it's one of those rare occasions on TBN where we won't be asking for pictures ;)


The lane rule for us on M roads is easy, we drive on left whenever the road ahead is clear. Other lanes are only for use while passing slower moving vehicles, we return to the left as soon as it is clear again.

Occasionally we get car drivers refusing to leave the middle lane of a 3 lane motorway. Last year there was a campaign to remind them that it is bad driving and will get them a fine and points on their licence if caught. It is often people not paying attention while on the phone, taxis, or drivers without much confidence in changing lanes.

Buppies, my dermatologist started a new policy I found out about yesterday...she makes you totally undress, rather then leaving underwear on...because she recently had a patient with melanoma on his privates. I got 4 squirts on the face to freeze AKs. Prayers for you.

Ed, Good luck at the dentist, and hope the fog is not as bad there in the mountains as here.

72 going to 88. Hey, I thought it was Autumn.

Here, I'm pretty sure you can get a ticket for riding in the left lane if you are impeding traffic, regardless of how fast you are going. Many of our interstates don't allow semis in the left lane at all if the roadway is 3 or more lanes wide. This has helped traffic, but still many cell phone users seem to hug the left lane and drive below the flow speed...I think they assume they don't have to concentrate on driving as much there...their "safe space." I've started driving slower since I retired, and especially since I got my truck a couple of years ago...I'm always in competition with myself to see how good MPG I can get off each tank. I'm amazed how 5 or 10 mph can boost mpg so much.

Drew, learned something new from your post...jury-rigged...I've always heard it as jerry-rigged and see that both are used, depending on locale.

I bought chestnuts one year so I could "roast them on an open fire" but didn't like them that much.
