Absolutely. A 6’ rotary cutter sticks out there and is a bit much for a small tractor when lifted on the 3ph. And 30 pto hp is the absolute minimum for a 6’ cutter.

That’s also why you are short $1700.

Interesting. I’m 7 1/2 years older than the woman I’m dating, but at this age there are no parents in the picture. Just adult children.

Turkeys are very abundant in AZ and NM mountains. So are porkys, bears, and deer. Mule deer are most common, but whitetails also occur. Elk are so common as to be a pest in some locations.

They are big animals and it makes a big collision.

I would think that after that many years into the marriage that would be of little consequence.

What you’re calling a log is a “straw wattle.” A log made by rolling straw in a biodegradable mesh, fastened to the ground with biodegradable wood stakes. I would guess that the bare dirt was grass seeded and the straw wattle is a temporary erosion control feature to hold the soil until the...

I think those are game crossings for elk and deer. They direct the animals to cross away from the road. I haven’t been to that area in a couple of years, but I’ve seen similar in my area that are designed for that purpose.

In the west (excluding the coastal states), most states have one or a few metro areas, with the remainder of the state being rural or small towns. And yes hot air balloons are popular in the greater southwest region. Albuquerque hosts the world’s largest balloon festival every October for two weeks.

Yeah, Albuquerque metro area is really the only large city in NM. The next largest are Las Cruces and Santa Fe. We are really a rural state with a large land area and most of the state relies on Albuquerque, Denver, or El Paso for big city services. The Colorado front range traffic is indeed not...

IDK the codes, but I hear that the historical old town locations have a committee that must approve changes to historical register buildings.

There are a few public parking garages and the Cathedral has a large paid parking lot. Parking is limited in the old town plaza area as you noted. Hotels are the best bet for tourists. It’s just too congested and of course parking was never considered when the old town was established in the...

Just an Archdiocese of Santa Fe thing. Sacraments are only celebrated in active churches. The Bishop’s decision. IDK the reason.

That is no longer an active church owned by the Diocese. It was sold to the hotel next door and it’s a private enterprise.

That’s because most store bought ground beef is made from old dry cows. My home grown steer ground beef is fantastic.
