Good morning!!!!

LS Tractor Owner · Jun 3, 2023

Good morning! Low of 41°, heading towards 76°. Slight chances (20%) of a t-storm late this afternoon. Chances go up to 40% tomorrow. About the same chances every day next week. I hope some rain happens......

LFN, have a safe work journey, keep the rubber side down, no dancing with moose..... or deer,....or elk! Sounds like you might have an easier haul season.

Kilroy, nice shed! Nice area for it! How is Harry doing? Did he learn anything?

RNG, hope you can find your gem in that list. Sorry about no rain in the forecast..... but that's a good thing right? Being that there aren't any roof tiles left....,

Speaking about weed wacking.... need to get the trimmer out for a walk again.... those weeds sure do prosper with just a few drops of rain..... I am amazed at how little they need.

Today's agenda: get the soil amendments turned into the planter and get the strawberries transplanted. They are really crowded and root bound in 2 large 25gal containers. They have been in there for at least 6 years, so I think they will get some relief with more space.

The only other pressing task is to get the 3 new planters hooked up to the drip system.
Should be able to get everything accomplished.

Everyone have a great day!

RNG, if you can get about 10 or 15 grand knocked off MSRP and no add ons would you go for it?

Of course I would!

But seeing as how dealer invoice is only about $3k below MSRP, there's a snowball's chance in Hades of that happening.

I'd settle for 5% off MSRP I think, provided the repair is invisible. And I'd be able to inspect it prior to purchase, as it's only about three hours away.

partially successful morning
stocked up on ss screws and bird feed but no joy on multi conductor wire of type I needed so I ordered it
on Amazon.

then home to go back and forth with reservations at rv campground in Millsboro DE I am going to next Wed and Thursday.
she was able to get me a pull thru site, for a mere doubling of the daily rate. Which thankfully was not terrible. Actually the rate tripled
over my reservation, and she dropped the daily rate 40 bucks a day for me. Very nice lady, after I schmoozed about me being a single senior.
they are making plenty of money on me for 110 a night. High season summer rate near the water. My original site was 49.
Nice upsell lady..................
I got site 203, she told me stay away from beach due to noise, so happy to do that. Short trip with golf cart to private beach anyway.
It's not the ocean, it's a piddly little bay but it's water
and with the pull thru I can haul my trailer and golf cart down there.
Site is easy to get to. Pull in, pull out.
This time I hope without perforating my rv again. If I never back up that trailer, that's just fine.
that's why they make pull thrus. when I get home I disconnect and bring my JD lawn tractor around with that nifty front ball hitch
Popgadget welded on so I don't herniate myself pulling it around.

nice campground desk lady said she would have campground staff help me back in.
no....the fiberglass isn't even proverbially dry.
but do you have a pull thru instead?
and off we went.
backing in without trailer is fine, but even with new hitch extension, backing is a problem with trailer because I can't see the sides of the trailer in
my side mirrors. Big opaque box behind me.
I think that electronic license frame with the distance beepers and a better camera might be a good idea for me. 350 bucks.
would have saved that first tail light lens, would have gone off and I would have stopped immediately.
before the crunch. If trailer plugged in, beeper has to be dis connectable.

is there an easy way...something built in that I don't need an app for...to circle the rv site below in say red magic marker
to present online? Or do I have to export it all to some paint program?

64°F and and .13 inches rain.

Lenny and I had our planning meeting how to attack painting project. Works starts in earnest tomorrow.

Something a bit different this afternoon. AARP is hosting Movie for Grownups at local theater screening The Wind and the Reckoning, a local film. A quick stop in HD before and treat Sophie to dinner out after.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Morning all, going up to 73 and breezy/cloudy.
Got in a nice bike ride this morning, took a while to tune up the XC bicycle and get the shocks aired up.

Dad messed up his plans again and went to SD airport to find out he was not flying out that day, he never checked to see if he was fully booked and if anything changed. He drove home.

Drew, camera, markers, 2" armor plate, we can figure something out.

About a mile from my house
