Seems like the forum has quieted down a bit lately. Has everyone gone over to the dark side? :laughing:

I have noticed quite a few are simply no longer posting; some got into "debates" that went south and I guess some others just lost interest.

I think its called spring time or tractor time!

Could be, it has been so wet here all spring, I have only been able to get my tractor out twice. My son put the M8540 in the woods to clean some stuff up and now when it dries up, I will go in and work on all the ruts; raining again right now and sandbagging going on north of us.

Most likely spring fever. Happens to most forums, no matter what they're for. Postings pick up through the winter, by spring everyone's gotten on eachothers nerves, then they're set free when it warms up. You should see some of the "debates" on some motorcycle forums around the Feb-Mar time frame..

Yeah, I quit posting on motorcycle, ATV, UTV forums a couple of years ago; too rough for me.

I tend to agree with the advent of warmer Spring weather. Yesterday, I started working outside at daybreak, and quit about 5:00PM. It looks like more rain for today and the following three days.

I'm behind on yard work. Today was my first day off in two weeks. Got lots to do but no gas in the belly. Turned over the garden and I'm ready to call it a day.:eek:

Good riddance to them all. The trouble makers, that is.

I do believe it is spring fever getting to most of us. look at posts the biggest % probably after sun goes down.

Spent most of the day in yard mowing and working on mower/tractor. Replaced some Zerks and Greased up the tractor. Put NEW belt on 3pt mower, sharpened the blades. I trimmed up about 300 walnut saplings and cut back some yard tree Limbs, added them to the gun backstop. Got a pretty warm back now as i did most of it with the shirt off... :eek: Allergies acted up a little, (took morning generic Zyrtec) and had to at noon get out one of the old Cold and Sinus Drixsorial (round green pill best stuff ever but dopers caused it to get put back behind counter and can't find anyone carrying it anymore.)


Ran low on Diesel so had to park my tractor & the dang $2500.00 Sears Garden Tractor (GT6000) is broke again 5th time in 2 years worst investment I made in years... I have a 15yr old Murry Rider (trans-axle going out) that fired right up and ran OK other than the missing tooth in the trans-axle. (All it has needed has been Spindles as my farm grows metal pile or chain or??? that breaks spindles..

Spent 2 hrs working in the barn too just bout wore out tonight...

What'd you do after lunch? :D
 
/ Have things quieted down here some? #14  
Gardens, cutting trees and dragging with my tractor, clearing brush, spraying brush, putting up winter equipment like log splitter. Getting out lawnmowers, weed trimmers, etc. Just have little time for the computer.

I looked for my missing clippers :eek: Dang 15 buck pair of Fiskers Ratcheting limb clippers (must of knocked them off the tractor or they fell out of the back pocket?) They were NEW last season as I broke the cheap pair I got from HF or Big Lots. I also cleaned out the rafters of dang starling nests... (HATE them birds) two nests at opposite corners of the barn in the soffet Vent they love to C&@9 on everything. almost as bad as the robins so had to break out the pellet gun, They are SMART too, will squawk at ya until the pellet gun comes out then they are gone.

Last thing I was doing about 530 was cleaning out the Shower Stall and adding in some 100% Silicone Sealant to the floor corners and cut the Plastic and TILE Paper to fit it.

With 511 pages for a thread called "Good Morning", I don't think so...

When they get too long like that I just ignore them. If I feel like reading a book I'll just pick up a Steven King novel.

I haven't been posting much on here lately myself.

I've been busy lately with my web hosting business, "webhosting-land.com" and yes spring time and warmer weather has made me want to get outside and do other things than the computer.
