Great updates and pics everyone. Been offline all weekend so trying to play catch up now. But I haven't been sitting idling by well maybe a little when I was talking to Allen on the phone. :biggrin2.gif:

I kinda spilled to beans to Allen wasn't going to say anything until I got it all done but got talking and next thing ya know I spilled the beans! Almost done will finish up next weekend if all goes well. My son was right there to help me out as always.:ThumbsUp:

He paints as well as I do but he's happier to paint then I am. I hate to paint but I got tired of all my friends telling me that my 122 looks good after I washed it!:ScrewLoose: I just took the loader off. So now I'm doing something that I hate to do just to make it look a little better to non-cub people. It'll stop the rust but not going to be a award winning paint job by no means. It should look great from about 100-200 ft away. One day I'll have it painted right but this will work until then.

Thanks Duke! It was great talking to you, as well! Your son looks to be having an awesome time. I can't wait to see the finished product! :IH Trusted Hand:

got the spring assist put on the 128 today. i think it will help but a guy sure gets spoiled with hydraulic lift.... also pulled the 8X10 leaf trailer around with the 86. bagged the rest of the leafs up with the 2165

Sounds like you have been keeping the Cubs busy :ThumbsUp:

Seat time is great! Isn't it, Nick? :beerchug:

Last weekend I spent nearly 3 hours cutting every bush & tree that kept smacking me in the face & let them lay there. So I finally made the trees to look like trees again. I think i'll be good for 4/6 years or so?
Last filling of the 6 carts that I loaded this past Sunday.

Hey how about that yeller on the cart? My wife really likes it. Spring project I think?

Boy that color grows on you, don't it?
