Looking good Larry. You've been busy. I did the same thing a few years ago. When I get ready to cut the grass I don't feel like piddling with a mower. I want to turn the key, hear the roar, and get it done...lol. Ask Bob how he feels about temperamental mowers?

Hope all you fine folks are doing OK. It fell a flood here last night with a great light show.

Be Good!

Sure, just let me know.. in other news... I ordered the wheel bearings and the input shaft seal for the steering gear for the Jeep (Just Empty Every Pocket). It only failed inspection on the leaking Power Steering leak. What was that James said at the Camp Out about the leaking Jeep???

I'll let you know when all the parts are in, and I'll pick up a selection of stouts to try.

I also got out and mowed the lawn yesterday morning, the little old Cub Cadet fired right up on the first turn of a key. But after going to Home Depot this weekend for some plants with Mary, I sure did like the look of the new Cub Cadets.

Mowers will be the death of us all. I had to replace the entire steering gears on my Deere this year. Cost about $200 to get it ready for the season. It was worth it though. I've had a LA190 John Deere for about 9 years, Got the second full cut in last week and it still cuts like a golf coarse. Now if the weather would quit beating the sticks and tree limbs out of the trees. sure is nice to look out the window and see a fresh cut lawn.

I'm about water logged myself. I think I'm fine on the rain for a while, a little sun and dry weather wouldn't hurt my feeling a bit.
In other news! My Banjo has shipped, and will be here tomorrow

Good morning folks. Hope you are all feeling chirpy today.

I cancelled the first banjo that I put on hold a couple of weeks ago. I then ordered one with a scooped neck and railroad spikes(a left handed model). It should be here in 3 to 4 weeks. All you string lovers are going to get me killed...lol.
