    Thanks! I have realized there is a great deal of value in these old tractors. So easy to work on for maintenance. No electronics…no plastic covers. The mechanical design wa brilliant. Also not bad to look at. Timeless classic, that old gal.

    Good morning all! Taking the Tacoma for its 3rd oil change already. I think I’ve got 3 more free ones left.
    Working from our place in St. Pete for a few days.
    Have a great Tuesday. Stay hydrated!

    Good morning! Going to be an enjoyable day! High of 86 (average this time of year). Heading to the range with a bud (x SF helicopter pilot) to test some reloads.
    Stay safe out there, but enjoy the day!

    :pccoffee: :wave: :bananadead: sixtys/wannabes/Avalonians. My sister and BIL had one for years, it was a good car for them.

    I did the same yesterday; worked for about 2 hours outside until I was "not quite dead", came in the house and recuperated, went back out and washed a car in the shade. I got a new "toy" because of how crazily everything has been growing around here this spring/summer. It makes short work of a lot of tough tasks, but it is a real workout to use for skinny-armed people like me:

    I'm heading out now for another session but this time I'm going to try to pace myself a bit better. It's supposed to be the hottest day of the year so far!

    A little something every chance we get.
    :pccoffee: Good Morning Porch Pals & Sue! This morning, I confirmed that I got the solar monitoring fixed. It's been over a month - I changed routers, and that sent the system off line since. Required an "installer" to unlock. SMA Service gave me TWO installers I could try; the first was responsive at first, until they found I was in Lockhart, then they were "too busy". The second never returned any calls or web contact requests. Finally SMA sent me some instructions, and the secret installer key. Sunday night, I got it back on line - at least it seemed so, not much data in the dark. Today, I got the reporting email WITH production from Monday, so, IT IS COMPLETE! And now I can do it again if needed.

    Session with the Sports therapist went well for a first visit; she's very manipulative! I got a little more range of motion in the neck, and my legs hurt in new places. I'm going back on Thursday. She's on insurance, but says they cover very few processes that aren't strictly "chiro". Don't care - if I feel better, it's worth it. Maybe I will make the hangar for the first time in two weeks.

    Stay cool!:yes:

    The culprit just went through about 10 minutes ago, and is headed for the pond! :facepalm:It's quite a bit larger than it looks in the pic.

    Dirty yellow sky this morning. Pollution according to the weatherman. Mostly an indoors day cleaning up from yesterday’s range day. Fun time!
    Muesli breakfast then kettlebell day. May stay cool enough to work on my solar truck project, and/or solar Casita project. What ever comes, I have plenty to play with!
    Have a great day everyone and get a little time outside for your vitamin D today!
