That's good, Its peaking here, Its usually second week of June so we are on schedule, Went from a dark green truck to a lime green one.............

Pine pollen should be peaking now, Its at it's worst.

Dutch elm disease devastated a lot of trees that were in the 100yr+ range here, It was a shame to see there demise in the 70's and 80's.

Oh fuk yeah

Will do

Heading to the Old Port tomorrow to hit up Jay's Oyster Bar to wreck a dozen with a few brews................

Thanks Dave, Its actually very rewarding, I'm fortunate being a jack of all trades and able to do mechanical and construction work on my own, All the tractor brands from that era and before were built for the long haul, That is why it was worth it to me to sink a few $$$ into her.

I have a 1989 JD 185 Hydro bought brand new in 1989, Mowed an acre of lawn every year and snow blow 2 driveways every winter, (mine is 150') so it ran year round and was pretty tired, I did a complete overhaul including a new to me engine and replaced everything belts pulleys spindles, etc, etc, They just don't make them now like they did then and she is as good as new once again.

Berries would thrive in that environment.

Berries love acidic/moist/wet soil, So a quick soil test would give you an idea of what to plant without amending, If i had to take a guess, There has to be some peat back there which would be good.

Neem oil

Probably about the same as he did in January............

And while were at it, One to 2E Lew.

81/71°F, Awful.

Just got back in from doing the driveway again as we got 2" that fell here from this morning until early afternoon so we looked to have finished with 18" for this storm.

No way.

Its been snowing 30hrs + here already before the ULL even comes thru........lol

Pretty tough spotting shelfs and anvils in 1/8sm vis........................
