The terrorist next door is obsessed with his leaf blower. The slightest little teeny tiny miniscule dropping from a tree and he blows his deck, porch, driveway, sidewalk, road . . . everywhere. His maple tree has been shitting keys and he is going nuts. At least it is not a gas powered pos. Now, THEY are seriously annoying.

Mower broke last month. Got two mows in for the year. Supply Chain Joe is preventing my new John Deere from being delivered on time. But we are in a drought and the grass is stunted height wise and all gone to seed.
Should be here this weekend just in time for some rain. In the mean time the grass is providing excellent cover for the cats to lay in wait for prey.

is he married? probably just trying to stay away from his wife. you COULD give him a hand and throw your leaves into his yard after dark...maybe glue some green ones to his deck so the leaf blower won't move them.

My trusty 1999 John Deere shit the bed a month ago. New one on order but I'd rather have this one around for towing duties. Maybe a fairly easy fix though. Looks like a stuck exhaust valve.. Maybe I can free it up without taking the head off. Ran good until it didn't. Now won't start due to no compression and this is what I saw as soon as the valve cover came off.

That image LOOKS like it's in the curves in Denali Nat'l Park, just uphill from their visitors' center. Though I don't know that for sure.
A grizzly, once up to 'cruising speed', can outrun a quarter horse in a quarter-mile at speeds in the vicinity of 35 mph.
In other words, "PEDAL LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER!!! And in high gear, if possible."
And when they're out after snowfall, into mid-or-later Fall, they're often looking for those last few meals before turning in for the winter.

In 1960, David Latimer planted a tiny garden inside of a large glass bottle and sealed it shut.
He opened the bottle 12 years later in 1972 to add some water and then sealed it for good. The self contained ecosystem has flourished for nearly 60 years. For those who are wondering how this is even possible: the garden is a perfectly balanced and self-sufficient ecosystem. The bacteria in the...

Young fellow came out pick up a load of aspen for burning and garden rails. When we were done with his meager load (smaller bed on a crew-cab, with a canopy), I gave him a cold Chuli Stout (5.9% abv) from the fridge, made by Denali Brewing Co. in Talkeetna, and bagged up what was likely over 2-3 grams in a nice smaller cola from my now-deceased 1997 California Indica that I'd brought back from Amsterdam back then, for him to take home to share with his wife...
Nice folks, by all appearances.
His wife in turn sent a packet of seeds for a medicinal plant that is reportedly (per my research) one of the oldest medicinal plants known. It's called 'mullein'.
Did a fair bit of reading about the stuff. Impressive. Can be used in tea, eaten as a powder, or even smoked. The leaves, that is.
My wife's going to plant some in the greenhouse.

I recall that being the name of William Wallace's love in Braveheart.
I also remember talk of smoking mullein. I think I would have remembered trying so I don't think that we had the stones, or maybe we just didn't have any mullein.

It has no known over-dose capacity, is non-addictive, can cause a skin rash for some, so it's recommended that people try a bit on a limited area of skin.
Native Americans sometimes used it as a poultice.
It can be smoked with other items, such as cannabis, as well as smoked alone, reportedly having a smooth smoke, and can open up the lungs, does away with phlegm.
His wife has grown and gifted it to friends in another state when they were suffering from COVID.
Like bananas, it can stop or aid in slowing diarrhea, and can also be administered to unplug constipation.
Soothes lung tissue and helps inflamed lung membrane as well as doing away with bronchial inflammation and phlegm.
Allegedly used by folks who are quitting smoking and can reportedly help in removing of tars from lung tissue.
It's referenced in publications ranging from WebMD to herbal medicine and naturopathic publications.
I know there's few gift horses and miracles in life, but my reading thus far with this stuff is impressive.
And the literature re. growing it, as well as her notes, indicates it likes to be abused; deserts, rocky terrain, ground that has debris from recent construction, etc. Places few plants would want to be. Just the masochist plants.
Maybe a new hobby.
He's going to run a couple of loads of wood each week, so he may be around as we sprout and cultivate the seeds.
Even the life cycle of the seeds is interesting. They create like seed vaults in the ground and can remain dormant until the earth is moved or exposed again. Mummy plants?

Goats are good things. Just no billies. Nannies only.
Get milk, lighter cream, sometimes cheese if skilled and prepared with equipment. Smart critters, clean (compared to a billy), and personable. As smart as most/many dogs.
Just have to train them not to introduce themselves horns first.
And keep 'em out of the garden... They can do some instant damage in there.
I miss the nanny goats on the farm. Awesome buddies. And they can clear out some brome hay or lawn in a heartbeat. Just make sure it doesn't have a lot of toxic nonsense on it.

If your exhaust valve is stuck your pushrod will likely be bent.
