Wayne0 1,101 #151 Posted November 19, 2024 (edited) Maybe it's Limington not Standish, It's been a LONG time. Can't be sure of the route, 5 or 25, but it runs across the end of Pickerel Pond where my family had a camp. It was on the left, but not Brackets. Some guy's yard with a sign. I always got a kick out of the name. Probably gone by now. That was 40+ years ago! BTW Watch out for those ferns. They spread like wildfire and are a ***** to get rid of!!

ebinmaine 71,763 #153 Posted May 18 Spring 2025 garden area update. We bought 5 cubic yards of screened loam. Got closer to 6. Also bought 2 yards of aged cow 🐄 manure 💩 . Got closer to 3. This weekend was loam & poo moving weekend. My 74 C160-8 Cinnamon Horse and the 17 cubic foot trailer with strap winch. Trinas Military Tribute Tractor and her 1976/76 Ohio Steel 10 cubic foot trailer. She has to keep the load weight forward so it'll haul about 8 cu ft. Mine can be loaded right full because of the setback axle. No idea how many loads we each pulled. I did 6 or 7. Trina moved at least twice as many loads but half the size. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes we have a Loader. 2. This was all done very much on purpose to burn calories along with increasing strength and endurance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wayne0 1,101 #157 Posted May 19 (edited) Looks like a good set up, BUT... The problem with Zucchini is you get so many you wind up leaving them in unlocked cars to get rid of them. Just my experience. Edited May 19 by Wayne0 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
