Howard.... Glad he found you and you found him! (I wonder if someone just dropped him off along your road after being unable to care for him? If so, it was a good choice!)
Good news: The new hydraulic hose that I need to fix the little Kubota is in the truck.
Bad news: I’m going to have to buy a new rear tire for Nanner. I was amazed that the old tires were able to be salvaged after how badly I cut them when I was cleaning out the pond. It was summer of ‘18 when that happened. I definitely got my money’s worth out of that repair job.
Spending $1000+ on a machine that’s pushing 50 years old is always a crap shoot. Hopefully it will pay off.
