Good morning James, Tony, *****, Larry, Clint etc...

Yup I'm looking at mowing the yard myself, can't believe it's that time of year already. I got my mower used and didn't like the way it was cutting. Well, I noticed while taking the blade off yesterday to get it sharpened, that the previous owner had put the blade on up side down... So needless to say the cutting edge was like new. Even dug the trimmer out of the storage building yesterday and fired it up.

Hi everyone.
I filled up the ole deere and aired up the tires and jump started it off with the bike on monday. Cut 2 acres and she did a fine job. I refuse to cut grass or work in the yard on the weekend. That is riding time for me. I got some trimming to do to get some branches up out of the way but that's no big deal. Next week it will be round-up while I mow to kill anything that can not be mowed. Yes I am lazy. I cant live with it. I hope everyone has a great weekend.

Got my years stash stacked up in the garage. Lowes has this sale once a year, normally it's $20 for 2-20 pound bags with a limit of two bundles. This year it's $13 with no limit, so we brought home 6 bundles, or 240 pounds of good Kingsford Charcoal

Thanks for the heads up Bob. I found that if you order them online thru the 14th and pick up at the store its 35% off which comes to $10.40 a twin pack.

Damn gonna have to hit up lowes tomorrow!

Gotta take my car in and get a alignment done in the morning so I'll have to load up on charcoal.

Man I'm dreading cutting grass. Gonna have to buy a new trimmer since my old one died last year.

GOOD morning everybody! Man it's beautiful outside today. If we didn't have rain in the forecast for Monday I'd wash the mud off of the truck from my fishing trip this week.
Errands this morning, need to get a pooper scooper to clean up what Rock (my dog) has left in the yard so I can start mowing and trimming. Tempted to get out the Bass Pro in Cary. There were a few things I could have used when we went fishing this week.
I've got two packs of Country Style Ribs all covered in rub and waiting for the smoker this afternoon, and plenty of cold things to drink.
Hope y'all are able to get outside and enjoy this beautiful weather.

Spent most of the morning (4+ hours) cutting the grass. Which was more like a over grown field since the previous owner didn't keep it cut at all. Also did a lot of burning this morning to but got a lot more to do.

Dropped my DD off to get a alignment an it's gonna cost me a little over $300. (03 kia spectra) barely had that I'm the car it's self (bought it for $450) but it gets twice the mpg my truck does so had to do it

A $300 alignment are they replacing suspension parts too. And what's a "DD"

Pooper scooper is broke in, not the most fun thing I've done today, but it needed to be done. After the grass/weeds come up a little more it's time to start mowing.

Had to put camber kits on all 4 corners because a kia is not able to adjust camber from the factory. Alignment was 65 though plus another 275 in parts an labor
