I bet that you are. :sorry:

I don't think that it works like that. :biggrin: Mosquitos and biting flies don't bother me that much but chiggers can see me coming at 50 paces. They are the Devil's spawn.

After all these years I find that out. You know what they say about "assume". :biggrin: It's a pleasure to finally know you ma'am.

Does your engine overheat while the a/c is blowing hot air?

Like you both, I am a battery tender guy. I haven't looked in a long time but they used to make small solar chargers for cars. You placed the small solar panel on your dash and plugged it into the cigarette lighter (when cars used to have such things). Something like that could be easily...

Bordercollie, I'm usually a live and let live kind of guy. If it doesn't bother me then I don't bother it. The only exceptions are hogs and armadillos, especially hogs. If the armadillos are just passing through, then I let them go. However, I don't take any prisoners when it comes to hogs...

He doesn't actually live there. In fact, I don't think that he's been there more than twice in the last 5 years. He has "staff" to look after the place. He owns a nutritional supplement/vitamin company up in New Jersey. He uses the place as a "retreat" for his employees and paying guests...

My neighbor has peacocks. I've only seen the peacock once on my place but the hens come visit for a couple of days every few months. They terrorize the outdoor cat and will even gang up on the dogs when they are outside. I had to take the cat to the vet for a peck wound on her side the last...

Go to kubotausa.com and look for the F-Series. Mine is the smallest one, the F2680, although I think the newest model is called the F2690 it's essentially the same. It's the best mower that I've ever owned and I've had just about every type imaginable. I was in the dealer a couple of weeks...

Just an update. It wasn't the fuel pump on my front mount mower that was at fault, It was an intermittent fault in the control box. Finally, I have my mower back and it's working great.

What is it with animals and holes in trees? My wife and I were back in Scotland just traveling around. We stopped to visit one of the "stately homes". When we were leaving we had to slow down to get through a flock of Jacob sheep who were lying on the hot asphalt. I noticed one of the...

I wish that I'd known that trick many years ago. We had problems with mice chewing the wiring on vehicles stored out in the barn at the farm. They didn't bother the tractors too much but they loved the wiring on the Dodge Custom Van.

That's about the only mouse/rat trap that I haven't tried although I have seen pictures of that set up before. Over the years I've tried just about everything. I still have the most success with the old-fashioned snap type trap baited with cheese of peanut butter. Oh, it also helps to have...

I'm running the heck out of it. Man, I love that thing. In the last couple of weeks I've toted umteen loads of mulch for the flower beds, 1200 lbs of lawn fertilizer for the spreader, I use it to tow the 30 gal sprayer for herbicide for the yard (it really needs it this year), used it to haul...

Yea. I've used it on lighter tires with reasonable success. It doesn't always work for me but sometimes it does. On heavier multi-ply, offroad and tractor tires like R4s, I let the experts do it.

Yea, I usually start a few weeks earlier than this but the yard is mainly St Augustine which doesn't start growing until the temperature is consistently above 70° or even 80°. The temperature has been all over the place this year. Some days it is close to 80° and the next it is almost...

Yea, I use Slime a lot on my smaller tires but a lot of my woes this spring were because the tire was off the bead and I couldn't get it back on. Sometimes I get lucky but not this year. I probably need to get one of those bead resetting tools ... or I could resort to the starting fluid...

My spring start up woes have been with flat tires on the L4740, the B2400 , the front mount mower. Even the small trailer had a flat. Every one of them had to be removed and taken in to the tire guy to either fix a hole or put in a tube. so far, the only thing that hasn't needed attention is...

I haven't mowed the whole 4-acre yard yet but I have used the mower to mulch leaves and hit a few of the high spots. All told, I probably have mowed the whole yard but just not at one time. Going to get serious about it this coming week.

I'd be interested in that too. I'm a great believer in grease. My father taught me. One of his sayings was, "Never spare the grease son. It's a lot cheaper than replacement parts".
