I       discovered yesterday afternoon the seals in the steering knuckles need       replacing to the tune of 15 bucks worth of gear oil running out and       forming puddles in the grass next to the wheels . Glad I only put half       the gallon in .               In other news we had a colony of honey bees swarm into one of our       empty hives yesterday . All but one hive had died out , the last one       absconded . Full of bees one day and empty the next . That almost       balances out the deer eating our strawberry patch . Leaves , berries ,       everything .        --       Snag                     --       This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software.       www.avast.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
