Good morning!!!!

07-23-2013 Night before last we had over three inches of rain in less than two hours. I had two utility poles-30 foot long laying beside a drainage ditch that I had dug 15 years ago. The overflow from the ditch that leads to the creek, washed one of the poles over 70 yards away. I still can't find the other one. Two bales of straw are also missing. When the ground is dry enough, it looks like I will be using the tractor and FEL.

JD - You didn't cut the whole apple tree down did you ? You just cut off the part that split and was shown in your pic right ?

The one that was split was a Gold Delicious and it has never been worth a darn so I cut it down. The bigger one in the background is a MacIntosh and is still standing...yes, I know the picture was confusing.

Evening everyone. I just booted up for the first time today. Went to town and bought a mower today. Time was very short when I got it home, but I did mow a little bit. Here is a few pictures. The second shot is of the spacers used to adjust the cutting height. Looks like 1/2", 1" and 2". It was really too close for how rough the ground was, but the rain was on the way, so I just did the best I could.



Or if you want to read about my trouble deciding, here is a thread I started a while back.

There wasn't time to pick everything, but I got a couple of cukes and a cantaloupe that was starting to split. The cantaloupe had turned yellow overnight. The melon growing on the fence keeps getting bigger everyday. Should I start a pool to see who can guess when it falls? I left the Habanero for Margie to deal with.

well for once I beat Roy to the alarm clock. Had so much fun yesterday looking at motorhomes and actually getting to put a toe in the ocean that I was fast asleep before the sun went down, and of course then up before it comes up...

put a deposit on a small motorhome subject to a test drive on Friday. That has me up early of course now with my new Woodalls/Good Sam's directory that came in yesterday. The largest bound volume I've ever seen, hard to even pick it up...must weigh five pounds. I think I'll get the cd also and just load it in the laptop.

off to the farm this morning to get caught up after many days of rain. Drying out now, hope to get some dirt moved, some mowing done, and some potatoes and tomatoes picked. After we gave some purple potatoes to the neighbors, we got them hooked. More! More! :thumbsup:

oh, what in the world am I doing up this early, in retirement no less. :confused3:

Suppose to be high 80's today, a totally awesome day, the humidity "they" claim is over for a few.

I might get the tractors out when I get back home, nahh... I'll lay by the water instead.

good morning 70 degrees already. was a nice day yesterday felt like late September, trying to rain now the forcast says 20% today. I got to go look at pickup trucks and I dread it. got my old 86 but sold my diesel and got to replace it and I don't really like anything out there to choose from that I have looked at on the net. maby seeing them in person will help. everyone have a great day
