I didn`t see how anyone would be interested in that last 56 M100 I sold, it had quite a bit of rust and I`m certainly not a body man. Too bad you won`t be traveling this year, it would be really nice to meet up with you. Funny that you should say that, I`ve never been east of Winterpeg.
We finally did get a bit of rain, less than half an inch which is better than what the rain missing us again.
I`m terribly sorry your friend`s fatal accident John. How old was he?

Dean was 58 . His bucket truck caught fire in the boom. He jumped. The fall killed him.

Happy hump dayeveryone.
It was nice to get the rain Steve, unfortunately heat is on it way so we`ll need more rain soon.
That`s terrible about your friend Dean John, What type of work did he do?
Have a good day Grant.

Finished part of my work early today, I just have a load of gravel to haul to my grand daughter`s new place..
What are you up to today Steve?
After hauling the gravel I`m back to cutting grass on a warm day.

Howdy Morris.. I started mowing and the zero turn slide sideways and bent a blade on the culvert.. It is too tight for me to get off so will have to take it in.. get those blades sharpened and get a new pair while I think of it.

My mower blades wear out pretty quick in this sand so there`s usually nothing left to sharpen Steve. I buy them by the carton.
What brand is your zero turn? I was thinking of getting a zero turn but the biggest ones I`ve seen are only about 48''. My 3 point hitch mower is 7 ft wide.

Dean was a well seasoned senior lineman for our local power co-op. I've known him twenty years or better. ...
