    Well....it's official. We've canceled our trip to your beautiful state. Hadn't been to Myrtle Beach in 3 years. But just too much uncertainty about exactly what will be open and to what degree. Plus my oldest daughter has Hashimoto's...which is an autoimmune disorder. There's evidence that in some rare cases Covid can trigger autoimmune system malfunctions. That's the last thing she needs.

    Maybe next year :(

    That sucks but better to be safe. Maybe things will take a turn for better days. The fall time is nice there not as much of a crowd but good weather.

    We use ‘merican feet and miles when we hang glide but the competitions, even in the USA, are all metric which pisses me off. Went to National Championships in FL last year and had to not only fly my aircraft but also do math equations while racing. Pick a unit of measurement and stay with it, dammito_O

    Good morning everyone!

    @Plain Jane Taco

    Since your the grass guru. What's a good walk behind grass mower?

    I don't think mine is worth fixing, plus it's hard to get it fix under the Coronavirus lock down.

    These RX-7 always look bigger in pictures than in person.

    The garage owner son RX-7 has less than 30,000 miles on it. His is all original, in showroom condition.

    They are definitely smaller in person, for sure.

    I don't really know what the "best" mower is. But I can tell you what I think a really good mower at a good price is. For the money....this is a good one. Craftsman is just a lable. They don't actually make anything. This particular model is a rebaged Troy-Bilt.

    https://www.lowes.com/pd/CRAFTSMAN-...-Mower-with-Briggs-Stratton-Engine/1000673809

    It's light weight and maneuverable and a really good bagger and an even better mulcher.

    I have the actual Troy-Built version. But they are identical, save the decal. I recommend it. 4 years of hard use and she's doing well. It's one of those "check and add oil" type engines, like most of them are today. I've found that moving up one grade to 10w-40 results in less oil usage.

    I don't think there's a better $300 mower out there.
