Good morning!!!!

[wngsprd]

60 going to 85...summer is back for a few days....I see the rain icon for Sunday
so fingers crossed...if we get it, it will be the first real rain in over 30 days.

Eric, I was out watching the Harvest moon rise last night, too. No clouds here.

Worked on my well cap yesterday. After pruning back the overhanging grape
vines and sting trimming, worked on the concrete pipe seam a few inches above
ground...the mortar had mostly cracked or fallen off. Chiseled some more off, ran a wire brush on my drill, then vacuumed.

I used hydraulic cement to reseal it...first time using it, and boy does it dry fast...2 minutes was the longest span I got...found I could only mix a cup of it at time before it would dry...but got it all done. Then caulked a small vertical crack.

Looking forward to daylight to see how well it is curing. Next step is shocking the well..

59 going to 88 on a warm cloudy day today.
I'm headed downstairs to cut up fresh fruit for guests; thankfully all they want for breakfast is a muffin and fruit,maybe yogurt.
We all ate a big dinner last night, and after three weeks on the road, I think my foodie friends, despite their passion for food, are getting kind of sick
of big meals and want to go home to vegetables and salads.

Still on a fence about the little Massey. I emailed the owner back and asked if a loader was available, aftermarket like Westendorf or Koyker. Waiting to hear back.
I made a list of all the things I could do with a new little tractor and half of them involved loader work in the lawn area.
Otherwise, finding a used Kubota BX with loader might be a better value for me.

I do think the little guy made a whirring sound like take me home to Pop...
Eric, thank you. I've been researching the Iseki brand too.
Iseki reminds me of Acer computers, been around a long time, excellent quality, not a lot of marketing.

Very dry here, need to water some trees today.

Poured first cup of coffee. 55° with rain this morning. Heading to 67° with rain all day. We could get up to .5" of rain. Not a lot. But it's a start. Have a couple of shelves to build. That should keep me inside out of the rain. Need to get things organized to change oil filters and fuel filters on tractor, mower, chipper and generator. I think I have everything. But need to double check.
Good Morning All.

I think that little Massey's size is more in line with a Kubota B series tractor. While the BX series tractor is great for a home owner. A B series will handle items like your post hole digger much better. Kubota 7800, B2710, B2910, B3030 and B2630. They all have 4wd. But finding a good used one is hard to find also.

45F mid 60's for high.

By the looks leaving blowing will be put to the top of the list this weekend.

Enjoy the day all.

Good morning all, 56 going to 83 and mostly sunny. still calling for showers Sat night and that is fine by me. Moving mom Sat so will be done by then, or at least close enough, might leave a few things in the trailer. It is water proof so no big deal. I am so glad I got that trailer. Hope to take it kinda easy today, just check over the truck an make sure it is ready for Sat.

Don, I told my wife about the air fryer okra you talked about a while back and she brought it up yesterday. Do you like it and if so what brand, ect. Thanks.

Have a great day. Ed

I’m going to look an L 175 Kubota today if I get time, very clean, but really prefer an HST.
Drew, I use to have an Owens flybridge 32’ lapstrake, small block Ford inboards, cool old boat but the upkeep was more than I wanted, and cruising at 18 kts wasnt my gig in those days.

A warm day coming up, mid 80’s, got a huge car and vintage plane show tomorrow, our biggest fund raiser of the year, hope this weather holds out.
