Tankman 3,523 #2 Posted March 9, 2016 Snow, snow, go away. Time to rebuild, replacing stone the Horses shoved onto the lawns while playing in the snow! Those Stallions think all the work is fun. They want to graze on grasses, take it easy for a bit. Me too! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 60,098 #4 Posted March 9, 2016 Yesterday I got some quality seat time on the GT-14 using the York landscape rake to remove all of the branches that came down over the winter. Lots of tulip poplar trees along the creek, the way they drop branches it looked like a war zone. Now I need to pull the mower deck out and get it ready . 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TDF5G 2,073 #5 Posted March 9, 2016 I think winter is over here in KC. It's been 50s and 60s and windy everyday for about 2 weeks! Just got a little rain yesterday after a dry spell. Didn't get to push much snow this winter, I was looking forward to trying out my new setup too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We would load the landing boats with equipment and jar heads, head to shore, drop the ramp and say "see ya"! We would go back to the ship, have a nice hot meal, watch a movie and sleep in our dry comfy bed; wonder what the Marines were doing? Ya, we were kids, and I am totally unapologetic! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They always made me upset, "What's the matter sea going Bellhop?" Enjoyed my tours on the USS Guam LPH 109. Was better than climbing over hill 'n dale!
