So this fresh wiened critter showed up on .......well the back fence of the house in Nevada . Last week they chased probably this guy around Hawthorne . F&G caught and hauled it up on the back side of Mt Grant and it's back down in the Walker Lake township ........
Hauled him 25-30 miles on ether so it could drop back down 10 miles . Shame for the Ca Browns .......

Got the tractor all reassembled, no leak now. In researching, I found that Deere buys
the transaxle unit from Tuff-Torq, and it is a K92. And they put their maintenance manual
on the web for free download. Downloaded it. The best part is that they say that the
required hydraulic fluid is "ATF Type F", which is old Ford late 70s thru about mid or late
80s (IIRC) ATF. Since Deere wants $25 a gallon for their "Special Hydraulic Fluid", and
ATF Type F ought to be more readily available, and probably more like $15 a gallon.

Want to stretch the life of a TH-350 transmission, you put a B & M shift kit in it and run Ford fluid.

At the casting bench in the sky. RIP Bret.
I just picked up a 5 gal bucket of Type F for my Bobcat, ran about $69.00.

Regrets because the family didn't get to share or because the strawberries might not agree with the dog?

the dog for sure, me too.
she can eat just about anything and does.
stuffed animals, anything that falls off a tree, grass hoppers, spiders, paper, water bottles, CD/glasses cases...
I think she is so small because half the stuff she eats is a petroleum product.
she isn't much for farting but when she does let one fly you don't want to be in the same room.
if they want strawberry's they know where to go get them, we have 7-8 a day come ripe.
I started out with 4 plants this spring, I should have 14-15 established plants by the end of this month.
I will probably move a couple of little ones next spring to start them better along the back fence.
they are in a 8X10X12' triangled out corner of the yard and the 4 original plants will probably all but fill it out by the end of next fall.
most of the stuff in the garden has done pretty good this year, not all of it gave fruit or whatever but everything done real well as far as maturing and doing what it's supposed to do.
the Mint is growing in it's box, the Tayberry's are vining out way beyond where I thought any of them would go [and I'm trying to take a start off one of them already]
the raspberry's have finally figured out what they are supposed to be doing and might be trying to move in on the Tayberry's [no big deal they are related and can cross pollinate]
a couple of the blueberry bushes have finally started trying to fill out and put some size on.
[I need to find 1-2 more of them to get them really going though]
the flowers flowered and I think the bushes will bush again come next year.
I'm gonna plant some bulbs here in the next week or so and we should have one 12' flower bed full of purple, yellow, and white combination flowers of different varieties next year.
I will move some of the stuff around next year and try a few different plants to see what happens.
but for a bunch of this and that out of the discount racks, us getting a late start, just getting it built this year [then a hard freeze coming in mid June didn't help] plus the biggest factor of me not knowing what I'm doing [and the one with the most knowledge about it in the house] we done pretty well with most things.
a green house or hot box type affair will definitely extend the season a little to help the vegetable side of things, so I guess I'm gonna have to build 1-2 of those.

I don't think that Oxygen is being added to the molecule...which H²O would become H²O² (Hydrogen peroxide). I don't know exactly how the chemistry works, but if the rain drops are gathering oxygen during the time they are forming/falling, I suspect Oxygen is collected and is loosely bouncing around in the drop, not attached to the molecule...then when that oxygenated water enters the soil, I suspect that oxygen activates single cell organisms (like bacteria or yeast) that start converting one thing into something else ....and giving off something (CO² maybe) that the plant can use. That is my assumption, which came from my experience in Homebrewing beer, one step in the brewing process, right before pitching the yeast is to aerate or oxygenate the Wort, as the yeast needs oxygen in the first stage of fermentation.
Working "ON" the reloading room.The backsplash area between uppers/lowers was a little rough. Gonna start a new thread as soon as the cheapa$$ lacquer dries.... got a "before" pic,waiting for the after. Should be this evening..... may wander around in the woods though. Animals are sensing weather approaching, lots of movement.

Looking at some historic, sad photos.....9/11 today.
https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/09/11/images-911-visual-remembrance/
Sad day. I was mountain biking in southern Colorado, had busted a few ribs in a fall, so we broke
camp and got a motel room in Durango for the night. The wife called me in the shower to say
"a plane crashed into the World Trade Center". I asked if it was a small plane, she said it was
an airliner. I asked what the weather was like, shutting down the water, and grabbing a towel.
She said, "Perfectly clear day." I said, "It is impossible to accidentally hit a building on a clear
day." as I walked into the room with the TV. About 10 seconds later the second aircraft
came into view and we watched it slam into the other building. "That proves it is terrorism."
We went to Mesa Verde for a tour of Cliff Palace, already planned after I busted myself up.
Sad day, no way to really keep up out in the middle of nowhere, no cell service. Headed towards
our cabin in the front range east of Alamosa, stopped in Alamosa and watched TV in a store
window for a bit. No TV or radio at the cabin, to remote, didn't have our Direct TV reciever with
us.
Cell service in Alamosa, called my sister, an airline pilot to see that she was OK. She told us that the
towers had fallen. Not then knowing the unusual stressed skin construction, I was really surprised.
And my nephew was just out of the USNA, heading to USMC flight school. In 2009 he was killed
in a fire fight in Afghanistan.
Sad day in history.

I've experienced delirium. Is that produced by adding more neutrons to alcohol?

Hooking up the trailer and the wife and I are going away for 3 or 4 days.Helding up to Idaho. Place called Portneuf Bend camp ground. This time of year we will probably be the only ones there.
