Road improvement....

 7:01 am - Thursday - March 27th - TWW - 50° F, humidity 37%, wind 9 mph out of the southeast.....crystal clear, blue, sunny skies this morning, with a forecast high of 76° F.  On this date in 2014 I was finally able to fix my speedometer.  It was non-functional for about 6 months due to a broken 'drive tang' in the signal generator.  I finally sourced a replacement  'drive tang' from a farm supply place in Canada.....

....needless to say, I bought all of their stock of this particular 'drive tang', so I still have three spares.

We accomplished a lot Wednesday, and frankly it was a lot more than I had expected.  One thing led to another, and before I knew it TLE and I had finished water proofing our patio and window awnings, put the white PVC 3" pipe I  recently purchased (a whole other story) into storage in the garage, charged the batteries for the Yamaha and Ford 420 loader as well as our emergency battery pack, scraped flat the driveway entrance road with said Ford 420, as well as the 1/2 mile road that connects us to the east/west arterial, then began work on the new site pad for Phyllis' Newell.  Yup, you're right....that is a lot.....

I'm driving the Yamaha Rhino one handed

Site preparation for the sister Newell has begun!

.....I've never used a gannon scraper box attachment before, but caught on pretty quickly.

On the white PVC piping I bought to replace the black ASB sewer line we installed.....since the weather has warmed so much, and appears to be a continuing warming trend, the ASB is not shrinking as much during the night, and everything is remaining connected, so we decided to put the PVC into storage in the garage until we return next Fall.  We'll install it then, until we dig the new trench to bury the black PVC.

By the time I finished putting away the tractor, and the other equipment we used during the day it was getting close to dinner time.  With the warmer temperatures, and the extended daylight portion of the day we're starting work earlier, and able to get a lot more done.  Charles and Phyllis are returning Thursday, so we'll be getting twice as much done in the next 3 days....we hope...lol!

Thanks for stopping by!
