Evening guys. The year is going quickly! Smog pump set up on the plow truck and ruined the belt. Took the guts out of the pump and reinstalled as well as new belt, also replace the plow pump belt just for fun. Sounds easy while sitting here but a lot of bending down in there etc...!

At least it happened now while it is warm out instead of 15* with blowing snow.

I almost mowed where I just did. Crazy fast growth. Makes me tired just thinking about it. Kind of dry though. I have spots that are sometimes too wet to mow until June that are already dry!

Yep, grass is gorwing at a very fast rate. I'm cutting every three days right now.

Anyway, the weekend is just around the corner but expecting some showers'.
