Good morning!!!!

[Peter 315]

34F clear sky but the wind had little bit facing it.

Been good day for outside short walk and puttering,even got the snow banks push back hope for the last time this winter that's if Buppies doesn't surprise me with nor'easter
Mrs. hinting around for dinner out soooo guess I'll be nice guy and take her and even pay. :laughing:
We didn't get chance visit Kubota dealership guess that's on Monday afternoon plans for today list.

Enjoy the rest of the day all.

I was up there a month ago with my wife and could not find a place to eat , ended up at the Fort not to bad..

But how are you supposed to hear the tractor groaning when you try to pull away with the parking brake on or the box blade down?:laughing:

And don't you miss that ringing in your ears at the end of the day?:laughing::laughing:

Yes, but the ringing comes from AC/DC (“Dirty deeds and they’re done dirt cheap...”)

OK I lied - I listen to Taylor Swift!

A clear and sunny 17ºF morning low and a clear and sunny 34ºF presently. A beautiful late Winter sunny afternoon. At least the ice in my driveway is starting to break up thanks to the sun, temps, and chemicals.

Thanks for the +'s regarding Wifey and ice management. I see a 2 part, 2 systems, mixed precipitation event starting Tuesday night and extending into Thursday to add to the existing mix of frozen slop.

David- Thanks for sharing another of your many projects. I am sorry to read about your body's response to your exertions.

Billy- One of my favorite western movies. "High Noon" was another classic. Thanks for sharing the video. Awesome performance.

Eric- Nice water feature. My cellar workbench is very similar to your bench in design and construction. I might have used 50#'s of wood screws assembling it.

Thomas- It appears that you had some productive seat time with snow ice management. Thanks for sharing. I have similar plans for our driveway tomorrow or Monday.

RNG- Sorry to read that you missed the movie.

BEF- It's great to see you posting seat time pictures again.

Peter- Welcome to GM.

I hope that everyone is having a manageable Saturday.

Good morning all. A season low 18 degrees out, mighty cold for these parts. Glad I put covers on the small bushes.
Wingsprd's movie score was sure well recorded, sounded like they were right in front of you.
Easy to remember the sweat running down the gunmen's faces...

old friend, a retired GP doc from PA looked over my MRI's and simply said:
Wow your back is nightmare. I would consult a Neurosurgeon.

Guess I should be checking out powerchairs too, my plan B. Already have an appt at the CCC.
Anyone have any experience with "personal mobility devices"?
I may decide to have no surgery at all, since my entire back is shot, in which case I have to sit down for the most part.
Going to make the most of it.

clear weather for next couple of days, then more rain.
have a great weekend.

Drew, about 12 years ago I made neck and spine implants out of an expensive grade of PEEK plastic. I hope they can do something to help you out. You have my prayers.

BTW ... who doesn’t like Torch Red? 4 out 5 of mine .. have been red.

I like the Red too, but I like the wine colored one with chrome plated wheels.

I got a pair of active noise canceling headphones that work via Bluetooth about a month ago, and man oh man, what a difference driving the tractor! My Kubota BX 25 is actually quite noisy, but with these headphones on and some nice music playing, I can barely even hear the motor.

Makes working on the tractor much more pleasant, as these things are so much more effective than just regular ear protection.

I have the Sony ANC, and I love them. About $349. I use them to listen to audio books. What pair do you have?

You need to check out Dr. Dementos' version of Dirty Deeds, it is called Dirty Deeds Done with Sheep. Eric can probably relate.

Started day with a church men’s breakfast.
Then hooked up hydraulic connections to the 3rd function lines and tried out grapple. Bought tractor with 3rd function, and first time using it. Went down in the woods and cleaned up downed trees and branches, even pulled some grape vines.

Then got old freezer on a cart and got it moved out to the back basement door.
Swept garage floor.

Took a nap or two. Wife and son went to a movie.
Watching XFL

Y’all got me looking at grapples now, sure would be handy.

I got the 55” wicked root rake. I debated going bigger, but this is all I really need.
