Just playing devil's advocate here. Talk to your cousin some more and find out what happened there and maybe try to get both sides of the story. May not be quite as bad as you think. Either way Jake, proceed with caution my friend. There are lots of fish in the sea and like you said, you don't want to blackball yourself. Let me know how it goes.
Excellent advice John! Jacob no matter what the age there will always be people that will spread rumors and BS. My ex is 48 and you should hear the chit that she spread about me. I don't care though because it always comes back 10 fold.

Go with your gut on this one.

I'm glad to hear that Ray. Kind a long trip to go to the vets. I bet that you'll be looking forward to the trip back home to get out of the heat.

Your Welcome Jacob. I hope that all works out well for you.

The only way that I know of to spin the blades faster is to change the pulley size.

Oh well, nothing like the dog house. It's raining like crazy outside and I left both of my Shepherds outside. The male decided to use the wife's new wicker chair as a teething ring. Geez, am I ever hearing it. Think I'll sleep in the truck.

I didn't change the pulleys. I have a feeling that the belt on the mower deck was improperly reinstalled.

As long as you trust the vet then it is worth the trip. Just think of the pups till you hit Tampa

Oh I mis understood. I thought that everything was ok and you wanted to make it faster. If the belt is not on right it will slip and the speed will decrease.
