Yup, our yard is beginning to turn white. The White Daffodils are popping up everywhere.

We spent the time between Christmas and New Years at the Cabin sorta relaxin', hunting, and there is always work. I had several 'blow down' trees across roads/trails that needed removing soooo.... I felled and skidded them out. Yup, what a mess. Bucked and ready for splitting. I split all...

It's much more impressive than I ever could have imagined:

My lift arms would not lift high enough to operate some implements satisfactorily so.... This little jewel got an attitude adjustment this morning. This is a huge difference and should eliminate my lifting problem.

Can I get an amen that this fire extinguisher looks OK ?? And I would agree until you look into the nozzle!! Yikes!!! A dirt dauber had decided to make this it's nursery. I cleared the nest out including the inner seal. And then taped the end such as I do on the muzzle of my rifle. I...

I have had an Echo gas pole saw for many years, but because of birthdays, weight, and length (extends to 16' or 18') it is now reserved for strong Grandsons. Soooo UPS delivered this little jewel today. It's on the 40 volt platform that matches my weed wacker, hedge trimmer, and chainsaw. It...

Yup, she just got back home from the Hydraulic Hospital. Both the boom and the bucket were dropping and at ~16 years old, it was time for cylinder kits. Wow what a difference. It cost me a bit extra to have them remove the cylinders from the tractor, but that job was not something that I...

The Beach and 'Sunning' is not my thing but I was obedient. That is my empty chain in the center in the shade. But I was 'game' for some fishing the next day. The slot size limit is 18" to 27" and my beauty came in at 25". A much larger Red broke off which didn't matter because it would...

So some folks with regular jobs get a day off and some folks like me that don't have a regular job even get a day off. No family get together is planned for us, so I will grill some shrimp, taters, & corn. Happy Labor Day OTT Friends !!!

Surely no one has actually used both of the popular tooth bars, but I would love to hear some testimonials on the one that you chose and why. BXpanded Piranha Toothbar EA Wicked-Tooth-Bar

This thing could cause much damage and hardship. Both Fordtech86 and I are in the direct path so hopefully it will have weakened before it reaches us. I have the generators and gas ready because we certainly will loose power.

I have had an old 1966 Oliver backhoe for many years but it's job was not digging, it was for moving logs. "Fat Albert" was powered by a 6 cylinder 78hp Waukesha engine and seemingly had no lifting limit. Even though my M4900 has only a fraction of the lifting ability, Fat Albert has seen...

This is the first time that I have actually seen a turtle laying eggs: The ground was dry and hard so she had to have brought the water to soften the dirt and make the mud. And this is what the "nest" looked like after she covered the eggs. Smooth and level. "Several weeks after mating, a...

So this fuel jug has screen to catch whatever debris might go into the jug. The problem is that there "were" tabs to prevent it from being removed so no way to dump the debris from it without turning the jug upside down. I said "were" because only after much prying, I was able to lift it from...

OK a question; my FEL gradually lowers. Is this an indication that the long (boom) cylinders or the joystick controls have a seal problem? There is no external fluid leak. It is a Bush Hog M346 loader.

Our soil was already saturated and then we got 2 1/2 more inches of rain last. Couple that with the wind and this 36"+ Red Oak let go. Hung up in the neighbor's tree. Another view. It will probably be July before it dries out enough to get to it. Yes I have a portable sawmill but there is...

My wife, has her procedure scheduled for Thursday April, 15th. She has been increasingly loosing her stamina and now gets "winded" during very mild exertions. Her problem is that her Aortic Valve has calcified and the opening is now small, plus it does not close completely/properly. Her...

to da farm. We already have two Club Cars which are serving us well for general lightweight trail/road clearing duties as well as just poking around and our family is expanding. I looked at various SXS's such as Kubota, Honda, JD, Mule, Rino, etc. but the gas powered Golf Cars continue to win...
