Howdy John!

I think it was Monday that I last mowed.

We had a big thunderstorm last week and the nitrogen makes the grass jump out of the ground.

We've had plenty of thunderstorms up here in the last couple weeks that brought rain but for some reason it hasn't effected the grass growth which is fine by me, I had other things to attend to..

Went to the local University football game; was Scouting day (and family day and whatever other day they can think of to sell tickets)

I stay away from Nitrogen and lawns. Too much work!

Lightening releases the nitrogen in the air and the rain carries it to earth. makes for a great fertilizer.

If you can put enough nitrogen on the lawn there is no worries after in having to cut it...burn baby burn...

Nitrogen does make the grass jump out of the ground.

I replaced rear shock on the panel and torqued all the bolts and figured out my plan to raise the front end. Going to drive it until the weather turns shlt then tear it all down and start over. I will never deal with the outfit I bought this cross member again...
