Good Morning!!!! 69F @ 5:00AM. Sunny. High 88F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph.
Hope those returning to work after long injury related absences can taper up and stay healthy. It’s all too easy to get carried away going after what used to be and end up going backwards down the recovery ladder.
Another 45 gallons of 3% glyphosate put down yesterday morning, about a quarter of the acreage covered. I wonder how effective it’ll be, though, as the thatch from all that tall grass is pretty thick in some areas, and I can’t help but wonder what kind of nasty weeds it’s hiding. Then again, maybe it’ll starve whatever’s under there for sunlight, and stifle its growth. Hey, a guy can hope, right?
Revived the headlight on the big dirt bike yesterday with a new bulb and a few spritzes of DeOxIt into the handlebar switch. In true DeOxIt form, it made no difference when first applied, but after working while I had lunch, the electrics were back to normal. Saved me from having to disassemble something with tiny ball bearings and springs inside, a recipe for disaster.
I’ll be out for another ride once the sun is up and before it gets hot, then I’ll see about what’s needed to replace the fuel lines on the old Honda Trail 90 purchased last year. It was leaving a spot on the garage floor until I drained the gas, and peering into the fuel tank showed a fair amount of rust, so simply changing the lines may not make any difference. Likely I’ll have to reline the tank as well, but one step at a time.
Hope everyone’s week gets off to a smooth start.
