    Very well said, I'd say I know who got high marks in English writing class! Couldn't ask for a more eloquent summary and "you've been warned" for our thread.

    I ordered a new tool shipped for pick up at Home Depot... 20221109_092556[1].jpg
    Wish I had this years ago... Auto wire stripper, crimper and cutter, with adjustable length stop, and adjustable tension. ********* is shipping spacers and bolt kit for the new 6x9 speakers... (They were at SEMA until November 7.)
    Happy Veterans Day (Resurrection Day 2022 after a Blood Moon Election Day...) Snow Monday, followed by cold and dry the rest of this week, so slick roads Tuesday are getting better. We're wondering about next week's City leaf pickup. Will the loaders and trucks be dealing with frozen bricks of leaves? Vacuuming carpet runners of leaves, maple seeds and gravel, soaked with melt water after outdoor recesses sound like a grind for the vacuum cleaners... It's still nicer than North Dakota winter...

    Well done Sir! Automatic 25 point jump in any future IQ references (low or high). I'm assuming most know the inside scoop on that whole deal.

    Wake up stock nation.
    Coffee is brewing.
    Lots of wet stuff coming.
    Need to get the Corolla washed and dried then put away
    today I think.
    Snow blowed the back yard of leaves. Was going to just let them sit
    but they were almost 6” deep. Had to move them.
    Boys new truck showed up yesterday. Small miracle. He needs some luck..

    Let’s have at it today.

    Mornin Marvelous Mike, coffee brewed and sloshing in the cup. I guess I should count myself lucky that I have no leaf bearing trees near my property, although that had to be a fun way to move them :rofl:

    it works. Not efficient however, when the leaves are to thick to move with a leaf blower,
    you use what you can.

    I had a late drop here and needed to switch to winter mode. So all my leaf stuff is stored. It works

    It doesn’t throw like you think.
    It is used more as a plow. When you get to the end of your row, you lift the front and let it
    Run for about 10 seconds, then back up.
    Lot faster than a rake. Then a quick run with a leaf blower. Hey, works for me.

    I usually do however when everything is switched to winter. You adapt.
    I’m very good at that…
