    Re: Dang thieves !! She doesn't have to. The squirrels die of lead poisoning - I think. See the one in the background? And a few more just out of the frame. Those buggers eat my house and invade my attic. Not many more deer around. Up until 5 years ago, there were 15 in the yard every...

    Could be an interesting Thursday.

    Re: Could be an interesting Thursday. Yeah, not even getting above 0 for a few of those days, and well below 0 for the next 10 nights. Looks like 15* below normal for another 2 weeks. I did my part by shutting the heat off in half the house, and keeping it below 60 in the other half, using a...

    I was out in the garage this afternoon, just straightening up, checking the battery tenders, filling the washer fluid in the truck. Came out of the garage just in time to see a sharp-shinned hawk dive from the tree toward my house. It actually hit the window, recovered, and then attempted to...

    Re: Grease from back hubs? Similar idea, but different design on the SURE_Lube hub. Zerk is on the end of the spindle, grease travels thru the spindle to the rear bearing, then pushes old grease thru the front bearing and out the front.

    swing away extentions

    Re: swing away extentions I've added the Fulton 34" extension to 2 of my trailers. Puts the boat in a little deeper at the launch. Allows me to open the tailgate on the tow vehicle. Keeps the boat from looking like it is coming in the back window. :)
