Didn't get a lot done this weekend. I did get the front yard cleaned up Saturday. Spent Sunday checking a few things out on the trucks and replacing the cabin filters. We will see what happens this weekend to get the back yard under control.

Need to bust out the machete and a whip to gain control of this back yard. It is WAAY out of control. When I open the shed door, I probly will have to chase down the mower. It's not going to like what it's going to have to do.

The yard was so wet I waited to Monday to mow the back yard to hopefully give it a chance to dry out a bit. I still had a he!! of a time as it was still real wet. But I knocked it down. Bottom of the mower was soooo clogged up with grass and weeds. I even raised the mower up a coupe notches to help it out. I have 50gal trash bags and only filled 2 of them about 2/3's the way full to try to keep the weight manageable. Glad I did ad they got pretty heavy.

I though this was going to give up the ghost. Little Honda was working it's a$$ off. I just went slow and did most of it only doing half mower cuts. There were a few places I went over twice due to the mower folding it over. I would go over it then back up.

last evening I was flipping through facebook and ran across an advertisement for boat drags in Buckeye at hidden lake. I was so concentrated on were this lake was that I didn't see when. I think it was in May. I didn't know there was a lake down there big enough for something like that. Has to be something new.

I finally broke down and ordered new headlights and fog lights for the Taco. I installed them last evening. What a pain in the butt-ox. Headlights were getting REAL bad and I have tried to clean them up a few times and the right side has had moisture in it since the end of November. Once out the right side had about a half a cup or more of water in it. The fog lights I haven't done any thing at all to. All of them were the original lights. Now to get them adjusted. They aren't to bad but do need adjusted.

Wow, never heard of Hidden Lake, only water there is Gila River and nothing else is on the map, maybe they renamed a section of it lately and it's not on the map yet Sure it said Buckeye "AZ" They say who was going to be running there, I would assume the ADBA.

Interesting, it's a private deal that's why it's not on the map and it's small, probably off the Gila River. Looks like all they have is the little hydros mostly kids, that's about all they could run on that size area.

Very well could be just kids. I was looking at the map too and the lake isn't big enough to float my boat on. Probly have some good remote control races though.

I been to em a few times it's a pretty cool deal, they have their $hit together, it's cool that there's an outfit where the little can go out and have some fun. They'll be at Bluewater again at the end of March.

If your talking the last weekend in March, We are booked that weekend for events around here. One of these days we would like to spend a weekend on the river. Haven't been on it in a while. See some racing at Blue Water would be fun as well.
