I guess that I’m pretty fortunate! Our yard is 2 1/2 + acres, and she’s still driving our 2004 Dixon Ram 44”. We did replace the Briggs 18 HP to a Briggs 21. I replaced all of the spindle bearings about 2 weeks ago, still on the original 2 sets of blades. Other than a few idler pulleys and numerous belts.....it’s still going strong!
Firearm related.....she’s pretty knowledgeable, a pretty good hunter (though a bad knee is really slowing her down) and darn good with a rifle. 2 moose, 2 Black Bear, a Bighorn Sheep, numerous deer, antelope (2 of which are real nice) and elk!
While she’s an almost unbearable “taskmaster”....I think that she’s a keeper! memtb
