I want one of these terribly bad 

I haven’t decided what I want to do with it yet, but I’m leaning toward keeping it. There is two on eBay though, an unrestored one is at 200.00 another one that is fixed up and partially restored is 950.00.

One of my very much esteemed old colleagues had a number of them and was adept at keeping them going.  They’re super cool, no doubt about it.

Finished up some lawn art. The old MM plow on a somewhat raised bed. I had these old timbers just laying around. I planted grass around the perimeter and Zinnias in the area under the plow. Get another pic when they come up. Watering the snot out of them.

Yeah, definitely it’s the same idea as our Wheel Horses just two less wheels. It’s a bit sentimental in my case too. I have pictures of myself and my three brothers riding around in a cart behind it with our father at least 40 years ago.

 First time in 50 years without one

That’s a bummer man.  I took a different approach.  Kids are grown and if I croak, she’s covered.  After 50 years without a bike and TCB, it was time to dial it back in.  Best part?  They fire right up every time, which is more than I can say for these confounded Wheel Horses!  I do love them but they can be a real pain in the butt.

Made a deal with my wife (long-time Trauma Nurse at a Level I Trauma Center) when I turned 60. Sold my F650 and got fitted for a new set of golf clubs  First time in 50 years without one 

  I turned 60 this year…I still think I have a few more good riding years in me. 
  Don’t ride much, maybe a couple thousand miles each year.

Finally got the shed I had built in November somewhat organized. Also got the stone put down around it. Got most the Wheel Horses in there. Trying to get the junk outta the yard & off my trailer.

Thanks. I like it too, but I will like it much better without the exhaust leak. I didn't drive it most of last year because the fumes were making me sick while driving.

That ISN'T an optimal situation. Glad you're getting it addressed.

My morning so far has been working on the truck. I'm waiting for new O2 sensors, so I was looking for things I could do with the cab still up.

 

I touched up a few spots on the frame, and managed to extract the one broken cab bolt from it's mount.

Earlier this morning I went out to the back 40 (garden area) and used our big walk behind DR Trimmer. Size of a push mower. Works excellent. VERY hard work. About an hour on that was plenty.  

There's still several hours of work to go there.  

 

Then we went hiking up across the street to Bill Merrill Mountain.  Just under 4 miles. About 2.5 hours total time. 

Definitely faster and felt better than either of us was expecting.

I fileted over 100 fish this morning.   The club held our annual kids fishing derby today.   We had 68 kids signed up and they landed some lunkers.

 

The winner was a 26.25 long  10.2 lb. rainbow.                              Those smiles are the best prize.
