Good Morning Lou,
We have all LG appliances at our Vermont home ! Bought new about 10 years ago when we remodeled the kitchen ! To date we have had no problems with any of them, other than a broken shelf on the right refrigerator door, which I was able to get a replacement for !
I had an LG French door refrigerator it was not impressive. The fan for cooling would ice up and freeze requiring the fridge to "thaw" before working again. Ended up with an upgrade to fix that. Then the applicae around the ice and water dispenser came loose and had to be siliconed in place. Then it developed a major gas leak so it went out. When I replaced it I wanted another french door unit and there was not a lot of choice for "in stock" items and I ended up with a SamSung which I'm not overly impressed with but it's still working.

I think I figured out why I always put off putting laundry away. 700 steps later it’s all folded and put away.
During Dr visit Monday. Dr was trying to explain to me how exercise is important. Until I showed my collected data for last year. I averaged 5977 steps a day for 2023. That’s very good for someone my age. Already on pace to do the same this year.

64°F and .19 inches of much need rain.

No success with my fuel tank clean out other than getting it cleaned out. Tractor started right up after. Let it run about 45 minutes then decided might as well mow abit. Not even a complete circuit and it stalled. Stalled another half dozen times getting back to shed.

Off to Hilo town this morning. Sophie has her ophthalmologist appointment. Need to do a few errands including a resupply from the Brewery.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Sorry David, that must be frustrating.

got the raised gardens ready, raked out level and then covered with landscape cloth.
then raked some gravel out of the lawn and raked a load of leaves out of front beds.
got another mouse out of the rv, but did not get motivated to work on the engine cover.
More seeds coming today, and just finished getting three trays filled with seed starter potting soil
trying to be very careful not to make a mess in living room.

this afternoon will put up grow lights but no sense turning them on until something pops up.

A great many years ago before it was popular I took our Farmall 400 to school. The paint was getting faded and I was in ag mechanics class in school, so a quick cleanup and degrease and a new coat of IH red and home she came again. As I recall took it in Monday morning and drove it home Friday afternoon, in the winter with no cab.
And proud feeling with in. (y)

Is there vent for fuel tank maybe plug?

I'm back from the Bay. Cops were out in full force looking for miscreants speeding and running lights. Did 10 kms over the limit both ways. (about 6 mph over).

Re: tapcons. I have an elm workbench 16' long and 4' deep held onto the basement wall on a ledger board that is anchored with tap cons. It has a 10 drawer, 2 of 6 drawers and two machinist tool boxes on it and hasn't caved in, in over 28 years. My 16' x 10' deck is held onto the wall of the house the same way. That has only been there for 12 years or so and gets a huge thump on it whenever the snow on the roof lets go. (steel roof) I put 8 of them in, one every 4' staggered. with the deck, I used the tap cons and joist hangers for the stringers on 12" centers.

Why does TurboTax have to take 20 minutes to update every time I log into it. Did they make a major change since yesterday? So annoying.

Wonder if I can build a greenhouse like the Costco one? Hummm

Changed the thermostat on the big tractor. Should think that it would be easy access on a tractor but no ac hoses and other stuff in the way. Had to use a long extension, universial
joint and short 12 mm socket
and using pressure to prevent the socket from going sideways. But it is done and can now plow snow in tee shirt if I wanted to

Good (Thursday) morning. Overnight Low of 12.8C and it's presently 22.0C, mostly overcast with a steady wind.

'Into town' run, yesterday, was successful in all respects. The arvo turned into a 'replace batteries' in a number of things as my weather station was intermittently dropping out at high temperatures of +28C. Whilst waiting for the Tx/Rx to pair, I decided to replace my mouse & keyboard batteries... and remembered that the printer's 'colour' ink cartridge was very low, so that got done too.

Horses were transferred to Paddock #3, later on. It being Summer and very dry as of late, they're 'picking' what's on the ground pretty quickly. (another reason why I'll lime this Autumn)

I've got a 'coffee meeting' in town @ 1100 and this arvo will be spent cleaning up Paddock #2. Tractor FUN!

That's about it, take care all.

anybody have the costco greenhouse. Almost $1400 for 6.7 ft x 7.8 ftView attachment 849681
I saw one at the beginning of last spring.... next time I went in (1week), it was gone. From what I saw, very well made. I had priced out getting raw materials for the same size.... almost $2K. But, material prices are still crazy.
And that was for all pressure treated. As I recall, the 1/2" thick "windows" were very pricey!
