Good morning!!!!

[sodamo]

60°F and .41 inches rain and raining. Guess a wet one ahead.

Successful trip to town yesterday, the dump and the PO.
New freezer is sitting in the garage, still boxed. Had to transport laying on side so will just leave it standing a few days before plugging in.

According to the guy on a forum, that Delta nut is a 15/16 with special threads. Not available at MacMasters. Cleaned up a bit, I was able to tighten down a bit with Loctite. For some reason the lower threads on the sleeve appears damaged it holds.

Goal for day is stay dry

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Sounds about like my day and plans except for the NASCAR. I used to really enjoy NASCAR racing but probably 10 years ago I started to loss interest in it. It seems to me that it has lost it's roots and fun. I still watch some racing especially dirt ovals which have always been my favorite, maybe because that was one of my major vices in my younger days.

Yea, used to the the Good Ole Boys out having fun, now it's corporations owning it.

Sorry, NASCAR has been cancelled until 4pm tomorrow.

my young friend with the Kubota went all the way down there to watch Daytona 500 and that was delayed also

built another greenhouse shelving unit, got that installed, decided to wait a day on impatiens, but I did fill up a tray with potting mix and soaked
that. I might get bored this afternoon and do it.

c'mon daddy, we're ready! look how big we are!

changed a propane bottle early, acting empty when it wasn't.
picked it up and it was all frosty and frozen on the back from sitting next to the plastic wall.
I put a fresh bottle on, put some insulation on the wall side of it to prevent this, and will use up couple of gallons that must
be left inside when it gets warmer. With the sun out and in the 30's I can put the heater back on low setting.

Case IH is going to bring out a subcompact tractor like Ken's Massey and the Kubota BX. Yanmar engine, tractor built by LS.
LS has built a very good reputation, just like Yanmar had, which is why John Deere got in bed with Yanmar for a lot of product.

Case IH is also selling a new 75hp electric tractor (would be curious to find out how much the upcharge is over diesel)
that has a driverless follow me function (for ?) and something very cool due to lots of cameras onboard.
you know how you can do a 360 camera function in some newer cars?
well Case has a see through fel bucket. You are given a picture of what the ground is like around the tractor, not blocked by
bucket. I would sure have liked that on my Massey. I had the rear camera but always wanted to see where the bottom of the bucket edge was.
was always operate by touch and feel where I wanted to see first...

Two_bit inspections were never an issue, I could get one the month before if I saw no line

All when the entire inspection business is going away in 2025.

’m not a fan of winds either.

The only negative about the beach. Wind is always blowing. 'Course if it didn't it would be miserable too.

We are sunny and mild at 50f. Calm winds. Hope everyone gets over all the colds, flu, stomach upsets and fells better soon!

Off to the races!

Ikea now uses plastic twist locks instead of metal.
And forgot to add some glue to the drawer cross members.
Being gentle seeing how they were built did not help, twist lock only about half turn before it split and the piece was fully supported at the time.
I sent them a report and feedback.

Now waiting for glue to set:
