Good morning!!!!

Thanks
Uncertain of paint adhesion to the plastic.

You’ll want to use a primer, designed for plastics.

Thank you BEF.

I'm about 90 miles away. But, I'm not an original Albamian...born Minneapoils, lived Sea Cliff, NY, Boston, MA, Washington DC, Lake Bluff, IL, Los Angeles, CA, Houston TX and now here in Dixieland. Spent time in the US Navy, last duty station CA-148, operating and maintaining MK56 gunfire control RADAR (it was all vacuum tubes).

I think I'll stay put for now (I'm 79). I've started a small orchard on 5 acres that keeps me outta the saloons, am a caregiver for my wife of 50 years, three kids, a bunch of Grandkids and Great Grandkids...Pheeeew!

My used M-F 231S is just right for my needs and I maintain all my own equipment which includes;

RAV4, BMW R1150GS, CAT powered 40 ft. motorhome, B&S Intek V2 powered riding mower and various other pieces of machinery and tractor implements.

Welcome Dennis! Seems you've been around the bush a time or 2.

Good morning, I forgot the grand kids were coming yesterday and now after a day of nothing but play I need to catch up on some weeding before they go and set seed.


BEF and anyone else planning on spending some time indoors today may enjoy watching this. If you don't have an hour to spare, add it to your bucket list

Dennis, I just told Max I've seen a really cute dog called Ginger. He woke up just long enough to do a few seconds of wondering too -does she have a boyfriend ?

Our dogs look remarkably similar. Will try to post a pic.

Not sure what to tell you if your FEL pin is hard. You could get some threads thread milled on a CNC for a load of pounds...or quid.

68 high of 89 with storms this afternoon some very strong. Very humid yesterday not nice to be outside at all. Busy day got 412 tons put down yesterday in parking lot

Nice to see some new people here welcome

Prayers for Toppop and BEF and all others

I'm afraid that "kitchen" would be a bit too hot for me. I don't understand how you guys can do that day in and out.

Don, it's been 3.5 weeks now, so the tide should be turning. Feeling better each day, just a little more movement each day..
Took my bath in bed, waiting for 1st PT of today. PT and OT people are great. Nothing like pretty young females taking care of you.

Great news. just keep on getting better. Hope your bible study is fulfilling.

Randy, your turn (thanks for updating Drew). Prayers for our team mates.

Ron, prayers for Betty.

My wife made a wonderful home made pie today. Yesterday, she made home made lemon bars with lemon juice from my friend's tree that we had in the freezer. Yummy.

Max, Ginger meet Willow. She was a rescue dog and has turned out to be a blessing....and a professional beggar.

True. As I’m pretty certain top is HDPE, very difficult to paint with good results. I’m leaning to just reinstalling on the Kioti for next owner.
As for my LS, toying with idea of a 4 legged, FOPS like frame and find appropriate cover. Thinking with the front legs I could add review mirrors. Was complaining to wife last week about pain in my neck. Seems to have disappeared about 2 days after last brushhog session. Suspect I may have determined culprit.

Ok, if you change your mind the Rustoleum Plastic Primer worked well for me in the past.

Willow looks like our Cinnamon (RIP). We have had 8 small breeds. Ginger is a Chihuahua/Terrier mix. The others were all Chihuahuas. My first dog (I was a 13 year old kid) Micky was a 140 lb Black Lab. I have scaled down a bit in my later years.

Ginger was a 8 week old pup when we went to pick her out of a box full of babies ten years ago. We pulled up to the house trailer where the breeder lived...the front door was full of bullet holes, the guy was in a cast (gunshot wound), the girl appeared to be high. My wife and I looked at each other. Ginger made her selection of her new owners and we departed quickly. Four days later we found Ginger was Parvo positive. The vet gave us a 50/50 chance. One of the vet techs took ginger home and medicated her during the night for 5 days. Le Ann (the vet tech) is a friend to this day and loves it when I bring Ginger in for exams and dental cleanings.

Kyle, I have been through your fine town several times on my BMW enroute to the ROT motorcycle rally in Austin. A favorite spot is the Oasis overlooking Lake Travis.

Best to all.

Denis or should I call you Mr Denise, Cable, was installed months ago, ISP had planned on dropping cable modem support for our area, it is buried and no problems mowing over it. I live on a private lake half way between Lake Texoma and Lake Ray Roberts, south east of Gainesville TX. Not a huge college football fan, probable because I went to an engineering college in Missouri.
Buckeye good to hear a good positive report. prayers sent.
DABSGT nice Pics enjoy Alaska, when looking at your thumbnail of the riverboat , I thought it might be an abandoned gold dredge, whole lot of those near Nome.
Jay my niece is an artist, in Nashville area, and I don't understand her paintings either :confused3:

Sounds like you got Ginger out of a bad place. She's fortunate to have been cared for. I'm betting the rest of the pups didn't fare as well.

Lots and lots of bikers go to the ROT rally. I haven't been since the late '80's early '90's.
