Get it while the gettin's good .... we just cleaned it up a bit & call it now .... make hay while the sun still shines. Ole Soapy got a bit too careless & greedy sounds like,a guy needs ta know when ta say when,good readin',he puts me in the mind of Al Capon,maybe that's where Al got his idea,just goes to show money can be made on just about anything,the old supply & demand.

10-4 on the young dogs,& nothin' runs like a well oiled machine,grease is cheaper than a repair.We bought some high dollar grease at the twp.$10.50 a tube but man does it stay put,I grease them little snow plow wheel bearings & that stuff stays all season long 1 time greasin' is all it takes,your good ta go all season.Grease the backhoe about 2 or 3 times a year,it don't squeeze out like the regular grease.
