Ok, what's next ?

I think you're on the right track with a week or so of soaking in penetrating oil. I use on called Aero-Kroil here, but a 50/50 mix of acetone and automatic transmission fluid is said to work even better at a much reduced cost. I've had good luck heating parts like that with an oxy-acetylene outfit, then spraying them with the oil as they cool down. Repeat two or three times a day until they break loose. Probably not what you want to hear, but once they do, I'd pull it all apart for a clean up and repaint.

50F now quick splash of rain during the night mid 70's for high,guess one could say were having our Indian summer.

Blew leaves last evening until dark again this evening after work.

Enjoy the day all.

62 going to 82 today in a surprisingly warm Fall day. Going to be an interesting day today, carport crew showing up at 7am to build carport for travel trailer. Will try to get some pics of that. Headed out to sit at the end of the lane with the UTV to make sure they swing wide enough to not hit the pine trees out there. My two pine soldiers guarding the end of the lane, flanking the end at both sides. Kinda wish they had grown up about five feet further apart than they are.

Judgement day for the car. The shop either finds the rattle or I have to dump it. Besides, it started after the last time they worked on it, which doesn't mean anything really other than coincidence. It's been in the shop since last week; they only work Tuesday through Fridays. Must be nice...At last call they were in there with microphones of some sort. Rattles are tough, this one is hidden somewhere they can't find. They worked on the suspension and brakes and already fixed one bad muffler rattle; unfortunately on a quiet car a rattle underneath is really annoying and turning up the radio doesn't help. I spent five grand fixing up this car, to wind up with a wonderfully running car, with a rattle. Sure hope they find it. Otherwise I'm going to buy a Volvo and turn my fun brain off.

Need to pour second cup of coffee. 66° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 74° with afternoon rain. Lawn almost needs cutting again. Undecided if I will do it today.
Eric, cylinder pin looks like it may never have been greased. Good luck freeing up all the pins. I have soaked items that are not plastic with brake fluid. In recent years I use PB blaster. Will have to try RNG's mix.
Good Morning All.

Don, I buy groceries at the wallyworld in College Station, but taxable goods here. You got a deal! Are there any more?

There were two left. End of row facing back wall by paint. ( A good Christmas gift for your son to start him on his set of tools.) On their website I see they are discontinuing them so another Walmart may have them on clearance also.

70°F this morning, going up to 82°, with a slight chance for rain this afternoon. Front should be coming through tomorrow, bringing rain and temperatures more appropriate to the season (88° yesterday!).

Like Ron, I'm trying to decide if I should go ahead and mow today, or wait until it's cooler on Thursday (not that low 80s is all that bad).

Beautiful day here at Mossflower, again.

Thing are definitely looking up! I accepted a new position yesterday back where my career should be and I'm very excited to start this new chapter and see what lies ahead. I last had a really good job end of May 2014...

I used the Kioti and a framing hammer to demo an old shed that the roof had caved in (and we did not know!) That tractor remains my favorite tool.

Y'all be good now.
