    Now if the sun would do its thing and get the inch and a half of ice starting to melt, I'll be good to go!

    That’s the neighbors tree and fence, they don’t care. If it falls in our yard I’ll take the tractor and push it through the fence :rofl:

    It really looks like the only reasonable solution to this is to purchase the right tool for the job.

    It was a side venture of Elon Musk’s. They sold out the 20,000 of the and now they’re super sought after. Some have gone for 3-5k on ebay.
    But yes, I do wish I had one as well... for weed control and whatnot. :fenforcer::D

    Wife update.....she looks a lot better today. I ask her how she felt other than the obvious, she said her pain is down from about an 8 to a 6. She’s taking nothing but Tylenol and ibuprofen.
