Good morning!!!!

[daugen]

I wonder how many times most of us have turned on a pressure washer to clean off the wheels of the mower or tractor and
had the first blast come right back in your face with all the crud attached, because of the curve of the wheel? I never seem to learn.

I believe there is a safer way with OSHA rating. It involves a cone of water that makes sure nothing comes blasting backwards at operator.
You have the intense part in the center, but a covering wall of water around it.
Does anyone work somewhere where they have one of these safety powerwash nozzles?

time go out and water before it all droops.

BEF - people request to join the R&RR group, then they get approved or denied, and once approved they are permitted to post. The posts are not individually "approved" as such, but the posts are monitored for appropriateness... unacceptable posts are deleted, and person might be blocked for a few days or banned after that.

that group has been going for 6 years now. there are 20 Admin / Moderators to share the load at this point. it's busy, but it's fun

Drew,

Emptying the pump and leaving the impeller/pump sit dry is Simpson’s recommendation I believe.

Probably helps avoid corrosion.

Glad you didn't have a fireworks show like this...

(I tried to insert the YouTube screen directly, but got an error message, so here's the link to a pretty scary front yard fireworks show.)

Wow!!! . . . And another reason to live in a "no kid" retirement neighborhood.

that really is an amazing video
you can watch it three or four times and still laugh
and wonder how lucky those folks were

trying to stop sweating, a/c feels good, watered all the outdoor plants and garden, weeded veggie garden,
picked two more golden egg squash, hosed the pollen off the car and then sat on a chair near the garage with
good camera waiting for birds. Of course none came. Better I go out with cup of coffee early in morning.

potatoes starting to look sickly, all good. They dry out very quickly in those bags so I water every three or four days.
Tomatoes up to top of metal cages. Good thing those cages are strong.

Thanks for PW comments, guys.
With my cheapy electric I have been guilty of turning on before the water flow . Usually because I just unplug instead of the less than reliable switch. Shouldn’t be a problem with the gasser. Have high hopes for this one. I had a Porter Cable with B&S engine 15+ years ago and was always a challenge to start, even after getting a new carburetor. Seemed the only reliable method was remove the plug and add gas directly. Sometimes I spent longer trying to start then actually using. Thinking this Honda will be much better.

I wonder how many acres I'd need to fire off a bazooka?.......

took several hundred photos today of all graves under tree limbs, where the drone can't get to.
Fun walk around, hot out there.
Lots of history here

had to report to house and grounds to stop procrastinating about this big tree and get it down before it crushes our stone wall around the graveyard.
Looking pretty precarious and long overdue.

Wonder if any little critters call tree home.

Last I knew in NH you need lic. to purchase TNT but not Tannerite,even our local gun shop sells it.
2019 clan way down the road decided shoot of Tannerite instead of fireworks,it lot cheaper and bigger boom also left mess trees torn holes in the ground,police were call about the noise nothing they could do until after 10pm.

66°F and .09 inches rain.

Get to inbox and play with new pressure washer this morning.

UPS dropped (literally) the new air fryer over the fence yesterday. I could tell as it was balanced against inside of gate at strange angle. I unpacked to check for obvious damage, none. There is a setup procedure involving a 20 min burn in and it was too late in the solar day for that. This morning.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a great day

Fedx Ground certain driver rather leave green slip in mailbox couldn't deliver etc. etc. will need to pickup,but the game cam show other wise when Mrs. show supervisor pictures...we both saw Fedx van make no attempt coming up the driveway,and were not the only ones.

Most of those adults should have known better...yup couple french-fries short of happy meal.

Did not see anyone over 55.

and look how close they were, how foolish and clueless. They should have been at least twice that far away even if they didn't light off
the mother load. Lot of money up in smoke.

Steering wheel for golf cart came in. Really will improve the looks and matches the brown cart. Has an adapter that has to go on first.

so while I was out there....used spray ceramic wax on whole cart, isn't a lot to do.

Morning all!
Things are still going good around here. Wife and I are in good health and enjoying the nice weather. Front porch is seeing a lot of seat time.
Got a new applicant for tractor operator this morning.

Hope everyone stays safe and healthy!

Looks like the lawn could use good drink of water from mother nature.

Glad to see those pedals functionally labeled. Reduces confusion.

Thanks for the good laugh. I was rolling.

Last time in Costco I saw an electric PW that looked intriguing, even though I have a karcher with Honda engine. I have had to grease the unloading valve.

4th day of triple digit actual air temps in the last week is a record based on my 71 years. The horse dry lot is a dust bowl.

Nice view this morning. Wife got some flowers as well.
