Yesterday it rained. No farm work except to fill up the wood bins at the farmstand.

We went to Philly. My daughter is coaching an under -12 nationally ranked team in Philly at a big tournament. They are really good. But yesterday they met their match. They went 0-3 against some really good teams from Indiana, Texas and Virginia. But they played well, and each game and set was competitive.

I was proud of her and her team.

And after that we found the BEST Philly cheesesteak place. Pat’s and Gino’s on South street are the two places everyone talks abt, but anyone in the know, knows you have to go down to Passyunk ave to find the real places.

Found an amazing place tucked into a little neighborhood. Best cheesesteak I’ve ever had!!

Good morning to some incredibly 'early risers from across the pond on a Sunday'

Our cat is currently scrambling around our bedroom w a maimed mouse.

Otherwise I’d be fast asleep.

I have to get him to drop it so I can scootch it into a box and get it out of the house!

Classroom and driving across the state training is done. Now I train in the field in my home area until I certify. Two to four weeks, and with two students per trainer rather than seven. I hope to pick up a lot more practical steps.

Excellent! You'll have more quality time with the trainer!

The visit was okay. Food was good. The repair plan worked as planned. The repair part was perfect. Nary drops were seen afterward.


Trying to work up some motivation to get my ass out there and cut the grass for the first time this year. Last year, Old Cranky started on the first pull, and on the third one every time thereafter.

Funny you use the term frankenmotor. Cuz we had fenkwnmower who dies later. We work three properties with that thing and I think I got 15 years out of it.

Bu it was beaten to shit, and I literally had tape and wires holding thw propulsion system together and handles. That thing didn’t owe me one cent.

We also had frankenbox, some kids wedged the lock on our farmstand so I couldn’t lock it. So I welded a heavy duty hasp on to it and put a huge padlock on it. I am not a very good welder, and if you looked closer you’d see why I call it frankenbox.

Have a great weekend lil. Enjoy that new lawn mower

I mowed the front yard... after I figured out how to make the mower go. I put the battery in and then the starter thingie (like the old cigarette lighters in cars), then pressed the blue button.

Nothing!!!

Read the instructions.

There's a little bar next to the handle that needs to be pulled back. I did that and it started!

 

[Lilianna23]

Wow, grass has already grown!

I am looking forward to spring!

Um... we're here! Spring has sprung!

 

[Wonderer67]

Very clean... is $19k a good price?
I know nothing about motors except to follow your maintenance schedule, check all your fluids, and be nice to your mechanic.
One question - is the front supposed to look like it was sourced from a film projectors?

That’s actually called a serpentine belt. It runs from the crankshaft and will power parts of your car (ac, power steering, alternator, etc).

It will also play old black and white movies!

Surfing the threads and listening to Stevie Rae on a full belly and a cold beverage.... perfection

Sounds like a great time!!

 

[Lilianna23]

The neighbors mowed my grass... he had to go over twice it was so long... need to weed whack the edges... it is on the charger...

I got my mani pedi which is so pretty and even found a pair of Levi's and a cute top .... it apparently spoil me day

Just had a late lunch.... I am still frozen on weight loss but at least not going up

You need spoiling some days! ️

 

[Wonderer67]

I've got a lot of messes, sigh

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you are almost done.

We mailed our taxes in yesterday.

 

[Lilianna23]

I apparently need some sun on my feet

Gorgeous!

 

[Lilianna23]

Made my first ful....it was amazeballs. Next project shakshuka.

What is ful?

 

[Lilianna23]

That sounds like part of my Sunday.


I did the beans and then killed off the ice cream. It was calling me.

I have a freezer full of ice cream that screams my name when I open the door!

Did it have enough torque to cut thru the tall grass pretty well?

Stay out of trouble? I am a very innocent old man who likes to give massages

Not so old... Maybe not so innocent???

Good Sunday morning early risers and afternoon
tea for those on the other side of the ocean.

I went for a walk yesterday and the weather was perfect in the upper 50s. Families were at the park which included some trails for us older folks and an amazing play area for the little ones. The children’s laughter brought a smile.

But my aging hip and knee began to object to what I used to consider a gentle incline. I am getting it checked out in the future. Pain is not my friend .
