Slow, ice, slow, ice. I personally feel my wife gave up on the ice machine too quick and went to ice packs wrapped in towels so she wasn’t so cold. Once my nerve block went off from my rotator cuff surgery it felt cold but once it got numb, awesome. I now race to get my docks in just after the...

Glad your procedure went well! Ice ice and then ice. We have a ice machine for my former rotator cuff surgery that I bought the knee wrap for the wife, she complained it was “too cold”. Wife still has allot of pain 8 months later but I reiterate she used a “trauma“ surgeon. Since she has not...

Little follow up to my prior post. My wife me informed her surgeon is considered a “trauma surgeon”. Well let me speculate that he went in like a bull in a china shop. Now it all makes. Besides referrals from satisfied patients, go with someone that has done this all the time. You know you are...

What Gary said. My wife waited way too long in my opinion, bone on bone on both for decades. She had the first one done last September and is still in discomfort. What I think is causing her pain is twofold, her surgeon said it was a total mess when he went in. Secondly, she has power walked...

Happy belated Birthday. FYI, we have lost a few fellow high school classmates in the last couple months.

The “purchase” was only easements rights and not the property thus avoiding some future issues like eastern UP experienced on trail 2 this year where new property owners needed to be addressed. I suspect these will continue to be logged over years.

A buddy I know has cameras from WYSE. No need for subscription, relatively cheap, notifies you and captures and tracks objects (including shooting stars). I do believe these are battery operated with a option to wire some. My system is hard wired and very old so no help there.

I think you have to segment it by industry. Auto taking the approach of “spec” your vehicle I suspect because they built massive inventories before shutting down. You spec what you want and they finally get a chip and move it through the parking lot of vehicles sitting and set for delivery once...

Copper/brass connections along with line. The line was ok but the connections went and the older frig had a metal fitting also.

I think you are correct. I learned this as we plumbed it into our frig water and corroded all the metal fittings in short order.

If BOP can't help you and it is a shock rebuild, start a new post here looking for places. In the past several JD members have mentioned rebuilding shocks and can answer the real question of if they can be. In the meantime I will ask my riding buddy. He tears each of his machines down between...

I admit they have the torque but after 20 years of my tow vehicle out weighting the trailer it is noticeable. The single biggest difference is the truck nose with a diesel really plants the tow vehicle. For the 3-4 trips a year I agree the 1/2 ton maybe less overall costs. My wife loved the...

Did you all know that Howard Schultz went to Northern Michigan Uni in Marquette? Went to Seattle in 1981(?) to work at Starbucks and created the whole gotta have a moca lotta grande coffee craze that has captured the world. My story isn’t so colorful 😁

I hear you. 5 years into retirement and I noticed my lunch sack is still in the cupboard. Could never justify the cost of eating out.

Contact Barn of Parts in Pennsylvania. They specialize in yamaha salvage/parts. Extremely knowledgable in all things yamaha sleds. Case in point, I had a Viper but the clutch engaged at 5,000 rpm. They sent me a clutch spring for a early Vector and then my clutch engaged closer to 3,000 rpm.

If you are in Wisconsin look up the local “dairy producer’s co-op”, they run tests for a fraction of the cost and give you the kit.

With a 28’ trailer I would definitely stick with the 3/4. I rarely ever had a issue with a 23’ behind my F350. Funnest thing was I downsized to a two place hybrid trailer and it felt like a parachute behind me, dumped that trailer.

Consider a Brita pitcher with replaceable carbon filter.

After 20 years of towing with diesels I couldn’t believe how much my two place trailer owned my newer F150. Then I got the truck weighted and it is 60% of a Super Duty.

Get the well tested for what is in the water. When we bought a home in WI it had been unused for 9 months. The well was heavy with iron bacteria that required we flush the complete system with bleach/chlorine every 6 months. On my RV the system can be subject to mold in the system unless flushed...
