    Please accept my condolences. The pup may have been small but he will leave a much bigger void.

    I always thought the best solution was to just split the difference. Change everything by a half hour and then leave it alone.

    On the third trip to the transfer station with my truck bed stuffed with a compacted grass and leaf mix, I see a full size truck pulling a dump trailer that’s several times bigger than my bed. I’m thinking that is the way…

    Good morning all, I hope you have a pleasant Sunday :hattip:

    I was looking at one of those to replace my 2WD S10 back in 2019 for a 4WD. It was an 05. Looked up under neath and seen the frame was a rusty mess so I passed. Drove down to the Toyota dealer where they had my 2009 Tacoma I bought. Ironically I sold it due to a rusty frame :laugh:

    I'm assuming a good portion of the country is probably having the last decent weather weekend for a while. Got the leaves mulched, mower oil changed, and loaner car washed myself.

    Yup, mowed lawn to bag leaves, probably another couple weeks before I'm done with leaf cleanup for the season. Went tool shopping after work on Saturday. Purchased some cutters for my metal lathe. And started a snow thrower refurbish, garage time. Made a video.

    I just get them down and let the wife handle putting them up :santa:

    The cat thinks the tree is for him, he should be throwing up anytime from eating it :goingcrazy:

    Funny thing is we were just trying to keep the dog away from the tree but it is the cat that's the real problem because of what you said throwing up.
