Spent all weekend on the lawn mower and a termite my neighbor rented but finished with early. Grass cut lot of debris burned and some flowers planted.




Cleaned out the old building behind the house that I'm gonna rebuild and found a old saw, wife informed me it was getting mounted over the fire place... so here it is



Spent this morning pressure washing the house and spraying some weed be gone.

Yea it looks pretty sweet, goes good with the bass hanging higher and the 2 deer antler lamps on both sides.

The tractor just kinda fell in my lap, neighbor rented it for the weekend but was done by 2 Saturday. Place closed at 12 though so he came over an said if I put diesel in it, it was mine for the remainder if the weekend. So $15 in diesel got me a day an half of hydraulics.

Good morning everybody!
Larry it's been a few years since I've seen that dash. Before my back quit, I used to repair and do 3 axle alignments on tractor trailers, Fire Engines, Dump Trucks etc. Anything heavier than a 1 ton.
