    12 weeks of Buffett style with new grass every day they did a fine job, will feed us well for half the year. we were only able to get half of what we normally buy for meat birds due to a shortage so we supplemented turkeys so now I’ve got seven turkeys to finish up June 7.

    I think by tomorrow afternoon I'll be the new owner borrower from the bank of a newer Honda Odyssey. I've only been thinking about it for a few months. I've zerod in on two, both white in color. Ones tan inside one black inside. I prefer black it may be hotter but it hides kid dirt better.

    :rofl:

    I hope you don’t mind me picking your brain but I was hoping to get some hints on how you would keep stock front brakes in good shape.

    Twice a year when changing over my wheels between summer and winter set ups, I’d pull the pins and pads (replace the pins and retainers every Spring), grease up, with synth brake grease, the pad backs and edges where they slide into the calipers. I still get shaky brakes some Springs and am wondering what I’m missing. This shaking clears after I do the above.

    Rotors and calipers are OEM and just a couple of years old. Rotors aren’t warped and I plan to replace them and the pads this fall.

    Any tips or techniques greatly appreciated :hattip:

    You do more than than 99.99999999999999% of anybody else would.
    I’ve never done that…lol.
    The only thing that I could add is give the brake rotors a good sand.
    Sometimes deposits stick to the rotors. As you drive it and use the brakes it burns off the deposits….

    All kidding aside, I wonder did the health care industry lose a huge number of physicians after the Pandemic to cause this chaos.

    I took the garbage out this morning and could still see the fertilizer pellets so it might not have rained as much as I thought it was going to.

    It's probably about time to fire up the sprinklers anyway.
