Good morning!!!!

PJSprog · Jul 3, 2019

76°F and partly cloudy this morning, going up to 91° today.

Got the Husqvarna rider on the trailer last night so the Wife could take it in today when she picks up the Dixon zero-turn. There's a bad connection somewhere in the harness from the key switch, and I'm tired of chasing it. So, she went early this morning, and came back home with a not-the-Dixon-I-took-in-last-weekend.

We'd talked about using the Dixon to get us through the rest of this season, then trading it for something new. Looks like they made her a deal, and gave her $700 trade for the 12-year-old Dixon (which is actually in pretty good shape), so all of our mowers are Husqy orange now ... except for the LS.

Eric, I have a friend from Liverpool (lives in Widnes now) - whose name is also Paul Smith - who lost a bet on that game, and now has an American flag as the background picture on his Facebook page. Some of his friends have been giving him a lot of grief over it, but his reply was, "Hey, a bet is a bet."

Burning off 4th layer of oil to season my new griddle.

Tires on camper about 6 lb low from over the winter. Just got to hook it up.

Sitting in easy chair with a fan blowing on me. That snow didnt cool me off.

Grass is cut now sitting with a cold water in the air conditioning sure gets hot in that cab tractor with no air.
Tried to start the 2N again wouldn't fire up turned over good. Reached behind the fan with a screwdriver and gave the Distributor a few good taps and tried again and fired right up. Does sound good for a 72 year old tractor that sat for 15 years or so.
Off to find another project to keep me out of trouble before heading to the lake.

David, congrats on getting the old girl running. I hope I make it to 72...

Drew, good luck with oil change. It is not included with price of car? Good morning!!!!
in fact I was pleasantly surprised Audi pays for the first oil change, tire rotation was cheap, and I just realized I walked out of there
without paying my bill. Oh what fun, will call them back now with cc in hand. We got distracted trying to fix the inop rear tailgate sensor which
they determined (remarkably) was not due to operator error. Made another appt for them to come get my car, leave a loaner in the driveway, which is always a
similar model, and I'll get it back when they replace the sensor I guess.

96 degrees out, really miserable, and I need to go pick okra and tomatoes. Going to be a sweaty affair, not staying outside today, hope we get some much needed rain.

Nice welcome home present.

My corn got blown over by last nights storm.

Blew the breaker to the camper when i ran the air compresssor. I forgot i cant run both together on the shared circuit, when AC kicks in.

Griddle has cooled to 120° from 400° in 30 min. Edges got to 300° on high.

I seasoned my new Blackstone grill a month ago.. need to set it up on deck so wife can use it when she wants. We got it for camping, but nothing wrong with using it other times too.
