Had 2 quick rain showers while trimming the front field than sun burnt thru the clouds wasn't much fun trimming trying to wipe the sweat from the eye's
than did dump run stop for critter food and new pair Skechers low cut boots hope they last several years of misuse like the old pair,around 1pm cloudy skies decided to mow the front field almost half way done sun pops from the clouds and you could feel the temp rising still couple wet areas but least it's mow.
Not much plan after dinner other than deck with feet up enjoying twin stick orange popsicle darn good chance early to bed.
Enjoy your evening all.

House internet was down when I left for work, must still be down as I can’t reach my weather station. Getting lightning alerts on my phone, for home. Radar shows big storm approaching home.

We lost two good-size limbs on our peach tree in a storm a couple days ago. First limbs we've had down in quite awhile.

So many of you talking about rain and storms, and I'm wishing it would rain. Temperature in the mornings sometimes just below 80 and then up near 100 in the afternoon, bright sun, and DRY. I ran the sprinkler on the front yard for 5 hours this morning.

JD dealer just sent me a quote and suggested I sit down..........
75 grand and he forgot to include the flail. Looks to be discounted about 10 percent.
Kubota would easily be 10 grand less, plus he spec'd implements that were larger than I wanted.
Plus JD has that proprietary front hitch system that doesn't allow you to use generic SSQA implements.
You can add SSQA as an option but it adds almost 80 pounds which of course comes off lift capacity.
So JD isn't looking so good. He'll tweak the quote but I'm sure I can't afford it.
Plus he quoted a 66hp machine when I wanted something smaller.
Grapple, FEL, tiller and flail mower. I don't want their cheapest Frontier stuff but what he quoted was simply too
heavy duty for me. I sent him a long list of corrections.
And reminded him my grandfather bought a B from his dealership in 1941.

From 400 to 330 to 280 new covid cases daily we are heading in the right direction! 6 ICU beds available. 17% of hospitalized Covid cases the last two weeks were vaccinated break through cases.
94˚F, HI102 sunny.
Went to 4 places to get my truck inspected, finally settled for an appointment for late next week. Went to HD to get peat moss to make a batch of potting soil - they were out.
Pineapple pizza is in the oven.
Drew is the farm where you are going to store your tractor have trees, open grass fields and tillable land?

Mostly, the drive is a DSS.
Big storms just missed us to the north last night, looks like it might repeat tonight.
Trying to refinance Ellen’s house so we can do some upgrades between renters to bring the rental income up and cash out some play money. The paperwork/online forms, etc…, drive me nuts. I’m more patient than I use to be, but not that patient.

86F and partly cloudy, feels like 98F ...
Mixed up four gallons of ammonia, vinegar, dish soap, cayenne pepper and dosed four groundhog holes.
Just finished mowing the lower front and came in for a cold drink. Woman ran down and got fuel while I was mowing.
Going to head back out and work on the upper front before the rain gets here. Looks like the line is 30 minutes (or less) away. Might be falling apart.
