Howdy all......another beautiful day here. I was able to spend a lot of time in the shop and made a little headway on a few things.
No big plans tomorrow for a change.
Hope you all enjoy the weekend.

Goodnight everyone. Got myself an almost new John Deere riding mower today. Only 12 hours on it, and got it for $700 below retail!

It's a little D125 with a 20hp v-twin, 42" deck. We have about an 8,000 sq ft back yard at our new house. Big enough that it takes too long to push mow.

Nice job on the mower, that will do the job for sure.

My brother and I got our 92 f150 back together. Now it's time to sell it and find anther rig to fiddle with.

Belated good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Nice clear sunny day here. Fortune tellers are saying it is going to get up to 83. Hit 85 here yesterday.


Been working on one of the Wardens "Honey Do's". She thinks she wants a "portable" kitchen island built. If it was a football game, currently the score would be Island 14, Jim 3. I got the casters on the bottom deck...finally got the side walls adjusted enough to get them and the back on last night so it is taking shape.

Did you get the rear bagger with it? Those are pretty spendy...around 300 after Military Discount IIRC from when we got the bag system for the 100 series Dad had at he farm.
Sounds like you have a lot of lawn to rake without one....

Evan.....Those are good mowers...nice job!!

Jim....We are looking for a big comeback on that 14-3 score

John, it's about to the end of the show season for me....we went to one last weekend close to home ....It is a huge car show, and they always like having our tractors and engines there.
Next weekend we are having a club get together at a guys house....he has a big pasture and we bring engines and tractors and have a BBQ......kind of winds down the season.

Late lunch West of the Rockies and looking for excuses to goof off for a bit. Hmmm, may have found it. The Lone Ranger on one channel and Nascar on the other. Such a tough decision!

John.....Good Afternoon to you also.

Held the score in check while increasing my side. Now 14 to 12 with the Island top now in place and secured. HOWEVER, it's time to start on final drawer & rail assembly, shelf and door installs. Odds are that I'll win the shelf and door fight, 50/50 at best on the trouble free drawer and rail bit..........
