Good


A reading of the book “All I want for Christmas is Rain’ by Cori Brooke. Illustrations are by Megan Forward.

I was out reindeer shopping this morning, on the way back from hunting, I checked the rain gauges, got almost 2/10ths.

Missed out on the main storm front.

Weather broke a little, so we took the new evaporator for a drive down the road and we are doing a cleansing boil before the season gets here…

I cant't remember the difference between the RTV520 and 500. I think the 520 has a CVT transmission? I have the 500 hydro tranny. Slow machine but one hell of a work horse and (knock on wood) super reliable.

Well didn't do much today. I had some brush and logs I needed to burn from work this summer I did (before I had the tractor) and decided to burn it today since there was snow, wasn't cold out, no wind....no permit needed.

I was a little scared using the tractor but I was extremely careful. I first let the brush burn to the point there was very little flame left in the middle of the fire. I decided to leave the plow on, there's no hydraulics on it so wasn't worried about it, plus it extends further than the bucket. I just wanted to push some of the brush and logs that didn't burn. I was able to safely push them all in before they all caught fire. So I'm happy about that!

Did some firewood today and played in the mud while I was doing it. Here is one of the logs I blocked up and split. It's 80" long.

Unplugged the battery maintainer from the BX24, hit the key, and it didn’t even try to turn over. Jumped it with the jump pack, pulled it outside and let it run for about 20 minutes. Backed it into the garage, shut it off and it wouldn’t turn over. The battery is at least 7-1/2 yrs old as it was in the tractor when I bought it in 2017. Battery shopping tomorrow.

Getting tired of replacing block heaters on my bx2370, bought a new one and rewired it to work at 200 watts instead of 400 watts.
Maybe I'll get more than two seasons out of it now.

Are you putting a timer on it or running it all the time?

 

[nerwin]

I went to go move some brush today with the forks...it was clear too. Sun was coming out and just after getting the forks on it started to pour out of nowhere. It poured for 2 hours straight. Didn't even show anything on the rader. Everything turned into mud. fun fun fun. Sooooooo.....

I'm like yeah...it can wait.

How do you "rewire" it????

I'm with Kenny on this, how long are you running it?

I have probably 6 diesel engines with block heaters some 15 years old and I've yet to burn one out.

Come on man, real men work in the rain.
The smart ones do it with a cab!

All of this was insight was brought to you by a man avoiding working in the rain, typing on a computer!

 

[forky]

In regard to the block heaters, my dealer said that 45 minutes is long enough.
I would not want to burn mine out either.

It's all those big fires you started, causing the climate to warm. Looks like several inches of sunshine in the forecast, full sun here today.
