67F and "Fair" @ 10:30, headed up to a high of 78F. Seems like there must be some high clouds today, as there doesn't seem to be bright sunshine this morning.
Got all four hoses on the loader lift cylinders changed out first thing yesterday. Still need to locate that last hose for the curl cylinder and put it on.
Refueled Kubota.
Then took a bucketload of dirt up to neighbor to fill the last of his trench.
After that I started filling the lawn roller. I believe it's the largest one Ohio Steel makes (920 lbs filled) so it took a while.
While that was happening I refilled hopper feeder and trimmed the low-hanging branches on the magnolia with the (new, last year) Corona hand pruners that The Woman recently recovered (lying on the ground at the base of a tree in the northeast planting bed
) Have to pick those branches up today.
Once the roller was filled, I ran it over the entire lower front in the long direction, and then came back and hit the bottom half where it was wetter again in the other direction (90 degrees perpendicular)
Stopped for lunch in the middle of that, had a bowl of ham and bean soup. Fed Woman's fish in the upstairs tank.
Refueled the Cub and finished the rolling up and then started mowing down around the house on the east side.
While I was doing that the Amazon driver showed up with the Sabre Red Pepper Gel and dropped it off (four days early)
Still have a little mowing left to the do on the east side and then finish up west side.
Agenda for today:
Order screws for gutter covers from Menards.
Collect up debris from lawn and take to compost pile.
Move more screened compost to southwest corner of house.
Put on pallet forks and put the trees we removed from the dirt pile onto the burn pile.
Finish mowing down around house.
Do some more spraying with what's left in the tank, possibly mix up another tank of juice.
More filling and grading around creek crossing.
Late today: See if lower front has recovered enough from being rolled so it can be mowed.
Yard pig looking fat and sassy:
Hope everyone has an enjoyable, productive, and safe Sunday ...
