Hey gang, just wanted to pop in real quick and say HI... sooo Howdy! I know I havent been on in forever but Ive been busy trying to build this empire and had to cut a few costs to achieve success. I haven't had my wifi card on in a while, saving me $45.00 a month. Plus I had to uninstall the...

I'm planning to take the next step with my business and move forward and doing more tractor work, grading and turf installs. I've been running the business again full time for the past two seasons but doing the maintenance side of landscaping. I'm really tired of busting my ass and barely...

It's that time of year again neighbors. Field Day of the Past is approaching in two weeks for its huge 3 day event held September 19-21 in Rockville Va. Tons of things to see and do for the whole family. Truck tractor and lawnmower pulls. A steam powered saw mill antique cars, trucks, tractors...

Ok gang I'm seeking ideas from anybody who has a good one. Aeration season is about to start back up soon and I feel like I should add a bit more weight to the front of my B6100 to counter balance the 500 pounds of aerator on the back. I've learned to live with it in the past but last fall...

Sorry Ive been gone for a while guys. Life hasnt been fair lately and I havent been in much of a mood to socialize. Id pop on Facebook a little to watch the world go by. Just before the time I went MIA the woman of my dreams, the one I was head over heals in love with has left me after a year...

Well I'm trying something new and I'm pushing hard and advertising alot for farm and acreage work with a tractor for hire. Within an hour after listing an ad for farm work I got a phone call asking to put in 15 acres of pasture land. The land has been cleared by a dozer and now just needs to be...

I couldn't help but get a chuckle out of a tv commercial I saw tonight while out at dinner. It was a Craftsman mower going up against a Deere, with Crapsman saying they out preform the Deere model. While I'm not a fan of either I'd think the Deere would trump the Crapsman all day every day...

Gents I wanted to ask for some help and ideas on some advertising. I've learned that wording in your ads and flyers can make all the difference in the world to customers. I want to sound as professional as I can and get the point across as to why they should hire me over my low baller...

I was curious as to why boats and vessels of any size, whether it's our own pleasure boat, a commercial fishing/shrimp boat all the way up to the big freighters that run to China are named? I tried to look the answer up online via Google and it came back with a bunch of answers I didn't feel...

I've probably watched this video atleast a dozen times yesterday and I still crack up watching it. Has to be one of the funniest things I've seen in a while! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4x9NxNJPmc

Found this on Facebook. Its a list of 38 abandoned places around the world. Some photos have a brief description under them. Alot of really awesome architecture on these old buildings. http://distractify.com/culture/arts/the-most-spectacular-abandoned-places-in-the-world/

I know back in the day in the winter time it was common for people to stick a piece of cardboard infront of the radiator to restrict the air flow making the engine run a little hotter. I did it a few winters ago with my 87 Bronco and I noticed it didn't seem to take as long for it to warm up...

OK so I lied I'm 6ft4 310lbs and there is NOTHING little about me! Anyway I received a phone call this evening while heading home after spending some time in town with my mom. It was from fellow member "ford-9in" who wanted to call and check in on me knowing I've been having a rough time being...

OK gents here's the deal. I've been racking my brain for months trying to find an adequate dump truck by the Spring time to haul mulch and other landscaping chores for my business. Having a hard time finding anything within my budget I've found this {dare I say it} 1969 Dodge D300 that a friend...

Well I did a ballsier move today and put on my big girl panties and aerated a customers yard that had a few nasty slopes/hills sides to it. I made pretty decent money doing the yard. All in all aerating on the slope sideways wasn't to bad considering. The 500 pound aerator stayed on the ground...

Well thanks to my "father" who's being an asshole I'm being thrown out of the house and have to be gone by Monday morning at 11am or the Sheriffs Dept removes me. The old man has got some kinda burr up his butt so I gotta go so wife #4 can move in... I am moving 20 miles west of town and not...

Brakes are hanging up. Went to go use my B6100 today and the brakes kept sticking moving around my yard and would not let go. The parking brake lever was unlocked, they were binding up so bad it would stall the tractor. I can't make heads or tails of this because the tractor has sat unused for...

I found this bush hog on Craigslist in my area and went to inquire about it. To me its in rough shape and he is asking for a trade so I asked him what he wanted for it, told me to make an offer and I said 100 bucks cash since your looking to trade and you clearly state you took it in on trade...

Lastnight I answered a call for help from an ad on Craigslist. This gal was in a bit of a bind with all the rain lately and her horse barn was getting sloppy wet with rain and animal pee. She was looking for someone to bring her mulch, so I emailed her and told her I'd be happy to take a look at...

I need to get this off my chest and you gents love to hear stories. Lately I've been doing a fair amount of mowing work on larger then normal lawns and fields. This is where having the B6100 and Landpride finishing mower comes in handy in my business. All of the lawns and fields I've done so far...
