Ok, here you go, the entire length of the shock is 15 7/8" (fully extended end to end) Center to Center of the eyelet is 14 1/2". I thought that piece was part of the Idler arm but couldn't be sure, again, never saw one torn off like that, was it ever greased? Should be a zerk fitting between...

Just a reminder to all who may be in or headed to the Keweenaw this week-end. The Portage Lift Bridge will be closed entirely beginning at 9 PM Saturday Jan 17th through 7 AM Sunday Jan 18th. Plan accordingly.-Mezz

Well, it's about time for the first shout out of the season to wake up Old Man Winter & Heikki Lunta's extended relatives, Aunt Arctic, Uncle LES, Cousin Squally & last but not least, Meester Bleezard! Hopefully they'll be packed for an extended visit & grace us with the gift of White Gold...

Happy Birthday!-Mezz

Here is a pic I thought would be noteworthy. I planted a smaller variety known as "Danvers". Everyone planted are this large & a few are larger. Measured one at 9-1/2" in length & 9" in circumference at the top, the larger one in the picture is 7"L x 9"circumference at the top. The stalks...

So what happens when you he actually gets to ride?!? LOL! -Mezz

Like many here, it was a slow start due to the cooler temps, I did plant on June 8th, here is what it looks like as of August 8thThe 6 Beefsteak tomato plants are like bushes & are loaded with fruit as well as flowers, we'll see how they fair out. I have green & red bell peppers, jalapeno...

I had a property inspection to do out in Little Traverse. This is along the east shore of Lake Superior in Houghton County. Beautiful sunny day, but near the lake, a tad cool at 54f though the water temp was not too bad, at least to a depth of 6" LOL:rolleyes:. I'm beginning to wonder if the ice...

Here are a few shots of the "Laurium Glacier" that I shot this afternoon (05/27/2014). All I can say is, MELT BAYBEEEEEE!-Mezz

Here are a few more....I don't recall this ever happening before, at least not in my lifetime. This is the result of the consistent sustained winds from the E which lasted a little over 2 day's, amazing.-Mezz

Here is a closer look at that very picture & a couple more from that area, not good for some.-Mezz

Well well, well, another Winter Storm Warning for the Keweenaw, big surprise. It appears that the NWS is also pretty good with their pink crayons. Chances are pretty good for a significant amount of wet, heavy snow. Could be as much as 20". All I can say is "DING" the fries are done & so am I...

Well, I remembered the camera today, here are a couple of pictures of the BEAST taken this afternoon. I will say this, these pictures do it no justice because of the flat light condition & perhaps my not adjusting to shoot in that light. You could darn near hide half of the fuselage of a Boeing...

WOW is right! only problem is you have to climb a huge snow bank to get a full view. Here is a shot taken back on January 28th,,, lets just say it has grown a little since.-Mezz

Happy Birthday!-Mezz

Rolls off the tongue. Sounds good! Yeah, rolls off the tongue as good as he rolls off of a sled!!! LOL! Like Here:Sorry Bud, I couldn't resist!:cool:-Mezz

I won't ever forget 04/07/07! It was EPIC & that was after ALL the snow was gone! I don't see this going away anytime soon.:cool:-Mezz

Lenny, here's how we roll with plowing in the Keweenaw, at least, how I roll. When at the top of the world, you must plow to the top, cause there just never seems like there is enough room to stash the white stuff. In area's like this, you have to pile it as high as you can, some area's, you go...

Thought I would snap a few photo's for those not around here or question the amount of snow we have gotten in the past 10 day's. We are already over 80" & not even half way through the month. Today is the first day (so far) that we have not had to plow or shovel, but still single digit temps.:D-Mezz

I've been plowing with an Arctic Cat Prowler since 2008, wouldn't have it any other way for the very same reasons as Lenny. I have since up-graded to a 2011 Prowler which has EPS (electronic power steering), what a treat that is when plowing in tight area's! I've got a 72" tapered straight blade...
