I just got a set of Oregon Gators for the new to me mower. I was cutting the underbrush before I put them on... until I popped a tire.

I'm liking it. I had a guy come in a few years ago with a forestry mulcher and did a big clean up. I've just let it get out of hand. After I do some work on it, that's what I'm going to use my old mower for.

She hasad gotten it before and had no idea how. Only thing she can think of is from the dog. His boundry reaches into the woods.

 

I miss those days. That’s how I got into rc racin so easily

I’ve wanted to do a diorama for so long.


Btw
What’s up with new screen name? You get spanked lately?

 

Burned about all I could find not nailed down. Ban will be on before you know it. Made a haul of pavers and rocks, not that I don’t have enough.
Now it’s griddle time!

 

Nope! Just changed it up Kevin.

 

Hmm

 

Hummingbirds having a feast
Trying to see if I can get a pic
They’re only 5’ away

 

@Titus94

 

Good luck. I tried to get pics of the bats...

 

I use to not get poison oak when I was a kid. Last exposure was in the mid 90's and I got it between my fingers, wrist and inside of my elbow. Not sure what it'd be like now. My brother was bad about catching it. He'd be a mess of rash and itchy bumps.

 

Afternoon Everyone !!!



It really doesn't feel that warm outside !!!

 

It’s a 179. Perfect for two people. Kitchen stretches across the back. Wet bath, I call it “the 3:00 am, pouring rain, and you gotta go, bath”. Permanent queen bed. As I’ve discovered the last few days the A/C is oversized, not in a good way. It is very loud, does not shut off, and freezes you out. It does catch up nicely if it gets hot in there.

 

Of course not! Heat index is only 100F!

 

That's the way ours is. Kinda loud and only the compressor cycles. Doesn't seem to bother us much.

 

The MO factor is high in this picture. (Aka moron)



Reminds me of the early 80’s...

 

What happened?

 

Ok, National Ice Cream Day



Waffle cone
Two scoops Rat Pack Ice Cream
Vanilla ice cream with cookie dough, caramel and chocolate swirls and nuts.
I wanted to go back and get the Raccoon Tracks sundae, wife said no.
I will go back tomorrow before work.

Sorry about poor picture quality

It was good

 

This is the piston to this



This is the snowblower my boy had. It was puking oil out the breather.
Since the oil rings are lined up it pressurizes the block and it pukes out the breather.
He bought another one. So my backup ,that works somewhat , went up to his place for emergency.
Everything is in fantastic shape on this one except for the puking of oil and carb.
So if I fix this I’ll have a real good backup. I’ll do some work on the other one and he can keep that one..
So I have a choice to make.
I can half ass this and clean and reposition the rings and use gasket maker and just throw this back together or
I can hone the cyl.
Get new rings and a couple of gaskets.
Hand lap the valves and adjust clearance.
Install a new carb for around 60 to 70 bucks. (I already have a carb)
Decisions Decisions..

 

May as well do it up while you're there.

 

Good afternoon/evening! Hope everyone is having a pleasant Sunday!
@Taco-Grinder I had the same thing (mine had a different name but still the same combo) in a waffle bowl. Great minds think alike.

 

You too.
Too damn swampy outside to work in the garden. Next couple days are going to be soupy out.
