Do you have any plans for those flat face QDs, Rick?

My port forward and grapple didn't come with fittings, so I picked up a set of these flat face fittings on Amazon that are working out really well. If yours are the same, I'd be interested in buying them from you...

RNG .. my neighbor has a 120 HP John Deer tracked skid steer with a hydro mulcher head. I gave my FF QD’s to him, for his “low flow” outlets.

Boy...pretty hot..
Got most of the chores done. All the de-limbing I wanted to do is completed, but I'll chip tomorrow morning. I still have some larger saplings to drop and chip, but shouldn't have any trouble or worry about low hanging branches knocking the tractor's work lights all out of position. Those others can wait for a cooler day
We got the base of the treadmill were it needs to be...thanks to my step-daughter's part time BF and his brother. Heavy SOB!!
Did not get to the gun shop to pick up the rifle...just ran out of time (they close at 1200 on Saturdays).
All told, not a bad day...I'll do some more tomorrow morning, before the heat kicks in...

Don I am calling the horizontal tube of bike the backbone. I am tying to establish that tube is not too high when both feet flat on ground. Pic shows bike leaning on stand, not vertical.

78F and partly cloudy @ 21:45 ... finally cooling off a little ... :thumbsup:

Got MMM moved over onto pavement, now need to grease it before it's used ... will mow initially with the blades that are on there.

Probably drop the extra set of blades off to be sharpened on Monday. One of them is bent ... so might take a stab at straightening it tomorrow in the heat of the day ... :confused3:

Little dump cart moved up to shop, along with one pallet of metal parts for the LPGS and another pallet of parts for the lawn dethatcher. IIRC, the dethatcher needs a just little bit of welding done on it (stands) and then it can be painted.

Two fallen trees removed from the drive going down to the pole barn and one placed on the burn pile up in the field. Other one needs a couple of huge poison ivy vines removed from it before it can be put on the burn pile.

Wood for projects unloaded from van into garage.

Recycle can retrieved from up at the road.

Bluebird houses #1, #3, and #4 checked. Three house wren eggs in #1, start of a nest in #3, five bluebird eggs in #4 ... :thumbsup:

Pallet loaded with metal rack shelving from the garage that will be going into the basement tomorrow.

Grill cleaned.

Got all the painting done today. Light dinner... was hankering for grilled cheese sandwiches. Couple slices of Ham made em hit the spot. Sitting on the front porch watching a colorful sunset due to the smokey haze in the air.

Pretty sunset there LS.

Went out before supper and grass was totally dry after the rain earlier.
Changed Subaru oil after supper. Much faster than changing the pilot. Had low tire indicator on today, so checked fronts and they were ok, backs looked good. After oil change checked the back with a gauge, one was 24#. So backed into garage to reach hose without adding the extra hose extension and filled it. Gonna have to watch that one.

Called dad. One of his hunters was bush hogging pasture. He got all the hay fields mowed except one steep part.

Good evening all. 68F for the start, 1 inch in rain gauge, overcast, near calm wind. Wind kept changing direction and velocity, sky cleared then clouded up, then cleared again, high temp was 90F. Bike ride this morning, only 53 miles, lunch, nap, Then started dealing with some of my own family craziness, which is messing with wife big time.
