    I love my Ruger’s, that’s 10 shots. This was only 30 yards because the pasture was grown up and I didn’t feel like wading through the weeds to set the target up at 50 yards.

    Yes, the spin connection is something I was suspicious of. I messed with it a little bit more but haven't figured out how to separate the cord wheel portion. Fortunately there are several decent videos, some even by Dyson Engineers.
    Replacement parts are still available too so that's a plus.
    Just kind of relaxing today and visiting some with wife's friends who are over and hanging out in the swimming pool. Then we grilled steaks and shishkabob, potatoes, and wife made a couple of pies today, rhubarb and strawberry rhubarb, the strawberry was fantastic with a scoop of vanilla icecream.

    Don’t you put that bad mojo on me again :smack:

    Got about a mile from the house Saturday and had to drive off in someone’s yard to avoid being hit head on by a grey Jeep Cherokee in my lane in a curve :facepalm:

    Sadie was with me, she said what were they doing? I said probably on the phone, she said or drugs :rofl:

    Glad that turned out all right.
    Seems that people are so "busy" when they are driving they forget that they are supposed to be busy driving. :annoyed:

    Good morning Wrenchmen et al. :hattip:
    Lets go out and do something great today -- in my case that means ..... mowing. :laugh:

    Off to pic up a mower that I redid a while ago.

    Customer was using it like a brush hog increasing the size of his yard.

    Found some old footings...by feel.

    Broke the belt and who knows what was done to blades or spindles.

    Happy, happy, joy, joy.

    These are the bolts that we're sticking up from the concrete.

    Glad you were able to avoid the collision with further damage.

    Crap like that used to be rare. Nowadays it seems like a daily or near daily occurrence for me or my friends. Happened to me yesterday.

    Be alert people :thumbsup:

    ‘Morning all :hattip: Hope you have a good day.

    We got over to the farm Saturday about 1:30 with the camper. I had some good help setting up.

    5ABF399F-8E2F-4158-95B7-5DF9FFCE9495.jpg

    It wasn’t crowded at all.

    The kids and I had already taken the four wheelers over that morning and after setting up I decided to get the mower and make us a yard.

    We saw some critters and a mushroom growing out of the bank of the creek.

    This one was dead but large.

    We took the mower back and got the kids bicycles. Cole strapped them down while I was in the shower.

    2FB40F95-2837-4F9C-8CD9-E3465512BDEC.jpg

    The Tacoma worked good for some evening shade.

    We got back and Sadie went 100 yards and wiped out. She’s tough though and pushed ahead. She wrecked again Sunday morning and toughed up again.

    4CCC045A-0C5D-4C37-A85A-7F13DD88DED4.jpg

    After supper we went back to the house and got the kids a shower. We had deer hamburger mixed with velveta mac and cheese. Saved the leftovers for my lunch one day.

    26FA74A0-6EF8-40C4-A32B-E5C171B4B373.jpg

    After getting back I ask Cole to move the chairs. He stood back and me thinking he was done ran over Sadie’s chair and crushed it.

    We went back to the house about 7 times Saturday, had a lot of fun though. Sunday we went to church and took the kids swimming at a friends.

    51F1A383-58E0-4AB9-BA08-D72C89F3F21A.jpg

    Had some friends come over yesterday with their kids for lunch and we played in the creek for a couple hours. All in all it was a great time camping and getting away from the hustle and bustle even though we spent about as much time at the house as we did at the camper. Thank goodness it’s only 5 miles away.

    For the record, the 400 watt inverter on the Tacoma will not pull the keurig machine. I tried 9 times to make a cup and it kept tripping it. It would start to heat and blink 20-24 times before cutting off. I finally said forget it.
