Tankman 3,516 #1 Posted March 20, 2015 Last week I started getting the Stallions ready for spring time! The herd loves green grass, me too. Took plows, wheel weights, chains off. Ahhhhhhhhh, warm spring sun, green grass, short sleeve shirts and a Rolling Rock Pony on the patio. Today, I set up the newest addition to the herd with his spring implements. Are you ready for June bugs? I think Mr. Gore called it right, did he? The hammock is calling.....ahhhhhhhhhhh. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uh..I think I'll leave my snow handlers intact for a few more weeks. The first day of spring in SC Pa. Looks like the view I'm seein' out my kitchen window. Outside Allentown, PA a blizzard up here. Weather says, continuing till 11 or so tonight. Yuk! Two days ago I leveled my stone drives and rolled 'em tight. Plow again, I'll be rolling the drives again. PS. Finished up with 7" of the ugly, white, cold, wet, slime slip slide about stuff! I like the smell of fresh cut blue grass. The old Work Horse pushed effortlessly. The Briggs surprised me, I like my older Kohlers, nah, I love my old Kohlers. Edited March 21, 2015 by Tankman 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pick up a new deck drive belt too! Seems as if you have time, spring is way off! If the old belt seems OK label it and hang the belt up for a spare.

And, pictures are required, worth a thousand words. Perhaps #1 on my wish list, a mid-mount grader blade. Honest Honey, I'll fix the leaky faucet washer as soon as I'm done with the drive. Anyone know of a 6" wide mid-mount blade? Edited March 21, 2015 by Tankman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm still not sure that's enough reason to have two horses but I'll try that past the wife later, thanks for tip. :-p 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm still not sure that's enough reason to have two horses but I'll try that past the wife later, thanks for tip. I have 10 tractors to maintain between me and my dad and m.i.l. so batteries can really be costly. I switch some back and forth between seasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
