Dead motor!!

I’m not usually one to give up, but I’ve had it with the small Kubota! I have over $300.00 into it and I’m walking away for now, it just will not fire. I know, I know, “Fuel, Air, compression” It must be on the compression end and I’m not going to put any more time or money or time into it, its going in a box!

I bought a charcoal smoker yesterday and converting it to a food dryer. I’ll take some pix of it once it is installed. Sam and I are both excited about drying food. We are also going to start canning at some point in the near future.

You may have noticed the peoplestring logo above. My friend tells me he is making money with it. It’s like a community like facebook but also a Internet portal where you can check your email and surf the web through it. They say you get paid for checking your existing email (gmail, hotmail, whatever) and get paid for it. I’ve heard a few good thing about it but don’t know, you may want to check it out. My buddy suggested it to a few people and runs all his surfing through it. He sez he just made $400 with it, kind of cool. I’m going to try it for a few months and if it turns out to be a dud, I’ll take the logo down.

I’m psyched to get going. I want to get to the Chesapeake and get “Splendid” fair and painted.

Cheers everyone.
