Good morning!!!!

[RoyJackson]

Roy good luck with generator, if there's water in there you may just have to bite the bullet and throw that gas out. Are you able to get non ethanol gas where you are?

My neighbor has non-ethanol gas delivered, but I don't know where or from whom...this, IIRC, is leaded gasoline
However, the genny has a sticker on it specifying non-leaded gas.

I'll see how it goes today...pretty overcast, but don't think rain is in the forecast

PS. Billy, that was a copperhead. We dispatch them here anytime we see them. They don't rattle before they bite, and they'll hide in garden, waiting for some poor soul to come and pick the green beans.

Yep, a good size copperhead for around here. I scared it off the trail a ways into the woods and left it in peace. If it was around my house or garden...different story.

Speaking of snakes, we have a black rat snake that has a GPS system. We've been watching these wrens build a nest on our porch, sit on eggs, and now bring spiders and worms to feed the babies...one started fussing loudly Friday and we found the snake on the porch below the nest. My wife carried it off about 30 yards to the edge of the field and it came back right away. I caught it in a net, spun it around maybe 5 times to hopefully disorient it, and took it maybe 60 yards...came back yesterday...caught it again, and took it down the hill to the edge of the creek where lots of amphibs live, about 250 yards away. I told my wife if it came back again, maybe it deserved a little baby bird snack...no laugh.

Well it came back last night - on our door threshold as we opened the door. My wife is sure it's the same snake. So I got a flashlight and took it a different direction, hoping it won't cross the shorter grass of the frisbee field. Next time, it's into a box and in the truck bed for a trip to the next county.

wow Jim that's very troubling. I was told no connection of monitor to anything in me, just a small incision, they slide the gizmo in and that's it, unlike my port used for chemo infusion which had to be connected to major vein/artery? in neck. They said I would go to cardiologist monthly and they would pull the data from the unit.
I sure am going to call on Monday and get confirmation on that. Greatly appreciate hearing your experience.
I had an external monitor used on me in hospital which was basically two sided tape to my skin and at end of two weeks I mailed the gadget back to company and they
created a report to my cardiologist. Which btw said zero AFib. I was told this new device was just a longer term version of that implanted under my skin for up to a year.
If it is anything but that, unlikely I will proceed.

If you are mainly monitoring for afib what is the reliability of the Kardia Mobile?

Be careful getting longer screws.
agreed, first going to try one size "fatter" and use some glue in there.
This is for upper railing holding sleepers/storage from coming down from upper berth.
Should have been bolted, not screwed with 1/2 inch screws into what is likely half inch wood...
On the way to dinner going to stop at Lowes and look for small screw assortment, hopefully square heads
As you know Ron, everything vibrates loose on an rv...

light rain has stopped for now. Showers/thunderstorms every day in forecast for next 10 days
Lawn mower repairmen smiling for sure

now that looks very interesting. The issue is whether the AFib occurs when one is not monitoring for that short period of time. I don't know enough about this yet, whether AFib is truly intermittent or it would show up reliably on a daily test. But this gadget sure looks interesting and no procedures. Thanks Newbury.

Lots of questions to ask docs tomorrow.

Not yet Ron need to reseed with shady lawn seed my mistake bench is complete though. As it will be on a slope do I pour concrete or made small deck with slant roof. Thinking more towards deck with roof but there goes the budget

Happy birthday to Kyles mom.

Slept all night in a bed.

Mostly, the seat switch is already bypassed with a jumper. It’s either the pto switch, high/ low neutral switch, or hst neutral switch. The last 2 are buried to where you can’t see them.

The BX has the loader on, so can’t remove the grill to get to the starter to try to start by putting power to the coil. Disappointed I couldn’t help her get either of them running.

I was working on the BX yesterday when one of the little neighbor boys came over. I looked up and he was watching from the open barn door. I asked, do you know how to start a tractor? He said no. I said neither do I. The kid turned and took off running for home. MIL says the kids like to come over to “help”. She said those kids have no fear, they pick up snakes, hunt frogs, turtles, bugs.

Budgets are mearly suggestions these days.
FIL used to have a shooting bench out back of the house.

Forget pigeons, Wngsprd has a homing snake.

Coffee is cooling in cup. 61° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 90° with abundant sun. House is clean. Plus a good day with GD. GS was feeling bad with cough, sore throat and head ache Friday. Went to Dr got tested and treated. Sent home. Dr. notified his employer. Got a call Friday from his boss. Wants him back to work Monday. Hope test is negative.
Got weekly garden pond maintenance done yesterday. So not sure what I am going to get done today. Probably putter.
Thought this picture was good with sun shining on grass.

Rick, a bought a used Commercial Oregon Electric Chainsaw Sharpener over 40 years ago. It still works good. I have at least 2 chains for every saw I own. Had some big saws when I was heating with wood. Today I mostly sharpen my neighbors chains. I had a Craftsman electric chainsaw with a similar sharpener. But it was on drive end of bar. Got jammed up with wood chips and oil. When clean it worked well. I used Cha Ching I other day on my JD mower. Check is in the mail. Sorry will not be doing Cha Ching II.

RS, another week of 11%. No way I can keep with your projects. No sparrows showing up at my bird houses any more at my place. :thumbsup:

Roy, I have used Berryman Cemtool B-12 in a fuel tank. Works better for me than sea foam. Available at Walmart and auto parts stores.

Drew, I agree on mask. I think the Sturgis is just another protest against the other protest. Sure hope they do some social distancing and mask. Be careful getting longer screws. Walls are thin in RV's.

Oldpath05, :welcome: to GM.

Buppies, is your gun range completed?

Buckeye, may be a good idea to take the Dr's offer. When I leave my tractor in a place other than my own place. I always put PTO levers in on position. Tractor will not start in that position.

RNG, paint job looks good.

Prayers and best wishes for everyone.

LS, waiting on final cabinet pictures.

Good Morning All.

I shifter PTO on and off watching how the switch got depressed, even crawled underneath to watch the hydro switch.

Did see that the radiator needs the cha Ching treatment.
