We had a good time running around town today. Had lunch at a place that was straight out of "Portlandia". We laughed. We hit a couple of estate sales w/no luck. I'm looking for a table saw and a band saw to make some stuff out of wood, and shopping the bottom of the CL price list. That means stolen or broken, and all I found was broken. She's looking for, well, items...
I spent over an hour tilling up a wide sweeping turn at the back of our property. It was really bumpy and uneven and you were unable to really slide a kart through it because of the bumps.
I got it tilled really fine to about 5" deep, then used a drag to level it and then a roller to compact it. Worked out great, I was power sliding like a champ through that turn last night.
And then this morning, I go outside with my coffee and a smoke and what do I see... the neighbors horses having a tap dance competition right on that very same turn. Arrrhgh. :doah: :censure:

rear brake on my 67 cj5 went POP! scrape scrape scrape while driving. still stopped fine and wasnt doing any new noises so i finished running around and got the wheel apart . its a tapered axle so had a struggle with the puller. beat the crap out of it and it finally poped off. good thing i have a puller thats older than my jeep or that would have went Pop too! stupid design those drums. just the little pin spring clip that holds the shoe came off. easy fix. then back to work on the high wheel bike :thumbsup:
Planned on mowing then chainsawing the rest of the day. While mowing... hit a in the ground yellow jacket nest. Got stung in the finger, the hip and the temple. Turns out o
I'm pretty allergic these days. Hip grew a 2nd butt. Finger swelled to my elbow rock hard. Good thing I smashed the temple one. Didn't get me as bad. This was Saturday... finally can make a fist today. Totally kicked my butt. That was my day...:laugh:

Today I got my old Yamaha motorcycle running. It's a 1986 SRX600 that I bought brand new. The throttle cable broke that last time I rode it, and it has been waiting patiently for a year or so for a new one to be installed.
