Cut up some soft wood slabs today and had the boys help stack it. Might make some maple syrup this spring so need to get the wood now. Also have some soft wood blocks that I split. About half more to go. Going to need to get more though. Then get a pan and arch to boil it. Might try to make the arch though

I started the 09 and 05 a few weeks ago. They both started good but the 05 shut down after a minute or so. Hopefully just a fuel problem. Typically takes a some tries in the fall to start it. But this time it started and the quit. Get to it sometime

Old guys slip and break hips on it. That is why they don't like it

Need some round to it?


Mine got moved around in the shed they are in. My buddy and his wife put hay on the barn so the sleds got moved towards the front on the trailer.

I've got to pull both skids and rebuild them as well as put the new track on the ZR.

I should put new shocks on the zl and probably rebuild the ZR shocks while I'm at it.

Better to do that and sweat a little than freeze. But I usually do stuff as needed and make time to do it. I do need a couple shocks revalved though

I probably won't start on anything until November. I'll probably take them to work and use the forklift and hang them from it to drop the skids.

Have a good night!
