Good evening everyone. How's it going?

Pretty nice day today, but the heat and humidity will be back soon.

Anyone want to come mow my lawn, I'm afraid I'll fall asleep on the mower and crash it.

Good evening guys. Went out to dinner (supper Troy) for work with a couple factory guys that are in town. Had a nice dinner (supper Troy) at Sunshine Factory.

I mowed last night and scooped poop

Do any of you guys ever get to the Le Sueur Pioneer Power Show? It's this weekend, and only 4 miles from my home. The trucks, campers, horse trailers, equipment, etc. has been rolling in steadily all week.

Sadly, my lawn tractor needs new spindles. I had about 20 sqft of lawn to finish off before the knocking became unbearable, last time. Luckily, we have the B, Farmall with 72" deck. But, I prefer my little Craftsman, most of the time.

I've heard of the Pioneer Power Show, never been there though.

Oh, you don't have to use your mower Eric, you can use mine!!

I'll have to NOT take 2 Benadryl at noon the day I decide to mow, damn near fell asleep driving home today. Too tired to mow today, maybe tomorrow.

Hey Jay, how's it going? You ever get a new ABS sensor for your truck? I'd have one for you but the one on my bad hub broke upon removal. Rock Auto has them for under $60 I believe.

Jay were you just in New Hope? That is where I grew up. I actually have my 20th HS reunion this week end, funny.

Small world huh, Jay. Where did you live? I lived at 38th and Louisiana, and went to Cooper HS. I don't need to know the year you graduated but what HS did you go too?
