We had the bin crew out to put a new unload and floor sweep in one
of the bins, and what was supposed to be a straightforward job turned
into a full floor replacement. The supports underneath were built by a
local shop back in 2010 and they aren't holding up. So now I've got
three options and a bigger bill than I planned on.
Also in this one: water hemp that will not die, a shrub that put up
more of a fight than expected, and about two hours of shoveling under a 33-year-old bin
floor in 90 degree heat.
Onyx is out for the summer after a crash in the late model. He's going
to be all right. Updates on that are over on @betweentherows
