| It was a pleasant 50*f here today in the thumb with a gentle breeze. Got me too thinkin bout stuff i gotta do this spring. Gotta make up a sleeve hitch for the murray so i can plow the garden. Theirs some trees that need to be taken down and others that need trimmin. I charged the battery on the huskee and after messing with it a little got it to fire up. Gotta change the oil and filters, air up the tires and sharpen the blades. Gotta rake all the gravel back into the driveway lol. Might do some aeratin and rollin. Need to get some firewood up for next year. Im leavin for college this fall, so i gotta get it all done as soon as i can so the family has wood to burn. Im sure thiers more.........
How bout you guys? | |

| I went out on a limb today and went to the storage container and got a garden rake, so I can move some of this left over snow around to help it melt faster. For superstitious reasons I didn't put the snow shovels away. | |

| ok i changed my mind and took the plow off today lol. Its only 2 bolts and takes all of 2 minutes to take off or put on and i was gettin tired of holdin the plow in the raised position all the time. Besides that I might as well remove all unnecessary stress from the front axle. | |

| JUST A SUGGESTION guys... Check your gas cans. With the warmer weather I noticed the gas can for my snowblower was looking a little like a foot ball. Had to release the built up pressure. | |
