    Big 12 eats its young! count on very little. ISU had won the last three, and I underestimated their defense. Those boys do NOT miss many tackles. Great offensive plan for the QB they have. Campbell is a good coach!
    And if there was a team that depends on one player, it's OSU.
    Go Rocky Top!

    If I remember right those lights are a combination spot and flood so they just light up a large area. Kinda why I'm interested to see what the look like in the dark.

    Good morning fellow Porchatonians!!

    I spent 4 hours yesterday finally burning the pile of scrap lumber, bee hive frames and brush we'd accumulated over the years. Put the plow blade and upper doors on the UTV, too.

    Today I'm prepping for winter while it's still somewhat warm. Checked everything on the roof, blower cleaned the gutter system, driveway, walkways, deck again. Looking at the grass, I might be done mowing for the season. I'll see on Nov. 1, my usual last day to mow for the year. I like to leave it a little longer, good for the root system, helps to keep snow from blowing across the driveway. I'll hand rake the frontage sometime before snow. I have a couple bags of de-ice from last winter, should be enough to get me out to the road, if needed later. It's fire season, so I'll keep the hoses out a while longer. Tacoma is parked in 4WD during cold weather. It's slow to engage in the winter. Service writer says normal. I call BS, and long for the old manual type.

    Just remember, more watts equals more draw.
    I know for a fact mine are .73 amps each.

    TY for sharing the pics. Sounds like you had a fun day doing some volunteer work.

    Mike: Do you know if my Airens, Deluxe 28, would support one of the lights from your link?


    Yesterday was a busy day. Started to fill in the depressions made by the Tacoma when hauling the soil to the backyard from the street. Used up all the soil/Compro mix we had left in the truck. It was too late to get another load yesterday, the business closes at 11:00am. I thought they were open till 1:00pm on Saturday. My son was helping his first employer to aerate and overseed some lawns and he calls around 4:00pm and wants to know if I could use some free Compro. Heck yes, we could so I went and picked up another truckload to put down today. We will be ready for our lawn to be aerated and overseeded on Monday. After today the old pond area will be ready for the final phase of the makeover.

    Happy Sunday everyone!

    As much as I hate to see the warm weather leave, it is a beautiful time of the year. We're in full color up here in NEPA - from my back porch yesterday morning.

    I’ve had so many people blame the truck cause they get stuck in their drive because they think they can just turn the knob and it’s in 4wd. It’s a procedure… I wish they were all manual like they use to be..
    I would back in my garage in 4wd during potential bad storms. Getting a running start to the road helped when you had to leave no matter what. Now, I drink extra coffee lol
