Good morning. It was 70° this morning, now 69° with light rain that should be past us by mid-day .. then 74° this afternoon.
Yesterday's "quiet" day lasted till noon with heavy fog. When I went down to the shop, after lunch, I noticed a flat tire on the Kubota ZT. The wide low profile 26x12-16 tires are bad about breaking the bead loose .. when flat. I jacked it up with a floor jack and let it sit for a couple of hours to let the tire reshape itself and perhaps get it re-inflated so I could move it into the shop. No go .. still could not get beads to seal. Where it was parked I had either take a portable air compressor or stretch out a couple of 50' air hoses to reach it. I used a pneumatic impact and swapped out the flat with my spare wheel and tire. I'll try to get the beads sealed and inflate the flat one, this morning, to see if I can repair it, with a plug, or have to take it to town.
Weather permitting tomorrow .. we're going to start cutting down a few trees where our new VFD building will be located. I'm going down this afternoon to see how wet it is .. as I'll be moving the downed trees with the 100 HP tractor and grapple. We'll move the trees to an open area,on our property, and a couple other members will cut everything up for "free firewood" for our neighbors. We decided against letting others cut up the trees, on our property, for liability reasons.
Patricia told me the only "after effects" from her Covid vaccination was a sore arm. She got the Pfizer vaccine .. I got the Moderna. We'll get our second shots about the same time since the Pfizer delay is 21 days and 28 for Moderna.
Hope everyone has a great start to your week.
Prayers to all.
