I scoured Craiglist and found a used Challenger lift



The slide blocks turned out to be bad in it, and too expensive to just buy new ones, so I decided to make some

Last summer, and this one have been really humid in the river bottoms, we purchased a broken barrel fan from a junk store. Turns out it needed a plug. It was also REALLY dirty, like old cat hair and water dirty, so we washed it, threw on a quick coat of my favorite flavor of Rustoleum and hit the fan blades with the buffer. This picture before I mounted the guards back on it.

Thank you! I'll probably have a few more posts to catch up, and hopefully I can be back to current events! Someone gifted us a used above ground pool, I've been getting my **** kicked by the sod removal/heat/Japanese Beetles on my apple trees!

Late last year a something followed me home.


I had seen the ad on a Swap & Shop on Facebook, but really had no reason to buy it as he was asking entirely too much for it, but a lot of my friends buy bikes like this, so I asked him if he still had it. He said he did and was firm on the price, I told him I couldn’t swing the $1,200 he was asking and went back to work. As it turns out, he was moving and ended up needing gas money after some repairs had to be made to his truck the day before leaving. He got desperate late in the day and by 5:00 he (with a little help from me) had talked himself down $350 cash. I drove out after work and hauled it home.
