We had a chance yesterday to get some work done.





We had a couple of items on our list to get done. First the Ocean bus had a flat tyre. So Mark and I got that off and repaired it. There was a large screw buried in the tread. Got it out and then put grease around the bead and welah it blew up and now back in the bus. Oh one of the studs was stripped. So while Bob and I where out bought one plus nut. All is great for that project. Tim built us a new A frame sign. Plus even primed it. Then Bob is still welding his little heart away on the Troy Built lawn mower. There is so many holes and just trying to get it some what back in line. That is what the big problem is, it is just rusted so bad. I have tried to buy a new deck for it. But have been told no longer making that model. So Bob pretty much has to rebuild the whole ting. If you look back you can see more pictures on how far he has come. Plus Tim and I used a wire wheeel on cleaning up the L brackets for the new gate. That right we still have not finish that project. Hopefully by next week the John Deere will be up and we should be able to replace the gate. Ad least one side. The reason I say that is, we need to get the old one down and take the hinges off the top and bottom, clean them up and then put them back on the new gate. Had all kinds of problem trying to get new ones built, just thought let us use the old ones. They are not in bad share.
