I got home in time to put the herd up before they got wet! Don Yeah, that was not in the forecast, to my knowledge. We got that bigger splotch of it over here. Four of my 5 hosses are sitting outside till I get the new alternator in the van, dang it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lower back trouble must be going around - mine is screaming at me the last few days, and I have fence to mend and an alternator to install this weekend, plus a lot of mowing...
