    Took the day day off. Poking around the house and tackled a few things. Gased up the Stihl BR600 backpack blower and blew the winter debris off the lawn. I think it worked nearly as good as raking.

    And sold the hose reel & hose that I had used on the front spigot. Had a 100' semi-expandable zero-g hose. Replaced with a fully collapsible 100' hose and a 2 gallon plastic planter pot. Drilled a 2" hole on the bottom edge to feed the hose through to connect to the 6' feeder hose off the spigot. Should make my life simpler and make winter storage much easier (ie take up less space).

    It'll sit in the same location.

    I've done the same with all my hoses...grab a 50' hose with one hand and throw it in a pot...done. If one pops...don't care, cheap enough at any discount store

    And.....

    Ditched the same reel I had out back. I don't use that nearly as much. It's a pain to move around each time I mow/use my trimmer. Bought a "step on" in ground hose holder. Kept the 75' Zero-G. Simpler as well!

    Enough room at bottom for my mower and trimmer to clear

    Can now store both front and back in a 5 gallon bucket over the winter.

    :yes:

    Good to know. I need a new 100' for that pressure washer I picked up over the holidays.

    I ordered a set of the Cooper Discoverer Road and Trail ATs in 245/75/16 today, they'll go on this weekend. I was thinking about some Firestone Destination XT skinnies but at the end of day, I don't really need something that aggressive, and ride quality and handling matter to me. Really appreciate the recommendation from @Sig45, it was helpful to hear from someone who lives near me in the same conditions.

    I don't handle edibles well, but a discreet vape is handy and enjoyable on my own time. It's been years since I could even think about having a little something at work, just wayyyy too scary around heavy equipment and heavy material. That's a nah dog from me.

    Back in the day I did pretty well for myself with big outlaw outdoor patches, and I have friends who did a good job of going legal in the past few years, but it was so stressful I don't care to go back to it. I'm just a dirty casual enjoyer now. It's kinda nice to have a puff and do garden stuff or clean and maintain tools around the house, maybe a movie. But I can't eat it, I just get rocked. o_O

    Are those 265 on 17s? I'm having some dumb second thoughts about staying at the stock size.

    I should probably just put the Internet down and not worry about it...
