A stereo for the new shop. TV is next. Then I have to research all that Hulu, Tubi, etc...etc... I don't want to hook it up to my DISH.

I dethatched my lawn today. Didn't take me long to realize that raking up an acre of thatch would take until July. So I got an Agri-Fab lawn sweeper.

This is what I swept up in a couple hours.

Chinese diesel parking heater for the camper. Works so well I installed it in the house. Power is out due to a wind storm yesterday, and 22 degrees this morning, but nice and toasty with the heater and my solar power system.

Love my sweeper. Turns three days of raking into three hours of sitting on my lawn tractor.

All that thatch went into the fenced area. I’m going to water it down for a couple of days, then till it under. We’re planting blackberries and raspberries there and it might just become my personal worm farm.

OMG! You actually....purposely....PLANT blackberries out there???!! I've spent a good part of my 62 years ripping them out and burning them. They grow wild like just another weed here.

Well, not today, but 2-3 weeks ago (after selling our 5th wheel and getting a stimulus check) we bought a 1997, 32 foot Winnebago on a Chevy chassis with the fuel injected 454 engine, 48,000 miles, owned by little old lady and kept in garage with occasional use since 2004... not sure if it’s me yet... wife and I have taken it on 1 week long trip, enjoyed the heck out of it but man is it big. Not as long as my truck and 5th wheel combo tho at 42 feet. So anyway we are already debating, is it too big for us and are we still to young to be the old guys with giant motorhomes (57 and 55 respectively)? But as of last night, we decided to give it another try and see how it plays out....

I didn't think it was even LEGAL to own a motorhome that long until you were at least 70, with cataracts, and wore-out hearing aids!
