got this John Deere ride-on from my FIL. i think it's a 2012, but it's pretty minty and runs perfect.
instead of fighting with my son on who cuts the lawn, were now fighting over who gets to cut the lawn...i let him win...:lol:

Wonder what’s inside?

My guess it's some sort of pressure vessel for a power generation plant or possibly from a oil refinery.

since there's only one tractor pulling, I suspect only air :)

I posted this before but shows how they rig for moving more weight, one pulling, two pushing

and more tires, LOTS more tires :metal:

Great Job . Is your son addicted to them now?

These are great training tools for following directions.:metal:

My nephews learned A Lot.
Me ,;) I don't Need no Stinking Instruction's:rolleyes::haha::lol:

I bought some of the old kits like that several years ago from brickset.

My Nephews would come over and build the new sets and I got addicted.:lol:

They grew up before I got them building ones like that in your 1st picture.

I think about 2016 they were to big to come over and play Lego's any more.

I still have several sets.
They are in unopen boxes .

Set 42008, 42009 and 42043 are just a few.
Of course I bought them for my Nephews:rolleyes:;)

Also, I don't know why there is a set in there called the Yellow Submarine.:haha:

To me that looks like overkill trailer and tractor for the size of the load , or the picture is deceiving.
But sure is impressive .

this ain't old, but cool none the less
Attachment 2357172Attachment 2357173

we have been finding literally thousands of old coins, gold and silver stashed all over the house. most coins are canadian and american from the mid 1800's to the 1960's, thousands of old, old stamps and this old book.
was printed in the early 1920's i think, describes life on a sailing ship globetrotting around the world.
just for the halibut i looked it up online, turns out it has some value to it

Came across this mishmash at the Portland Swap meet last month. Unfortunately the photo of the rear end was too out of focus to use. So you will have to imagine the 1960 cats eye Impala taillights on the tailgate.

Was out yesterday and took this photo. I am not much of a plant guy but I do know how to plant things and make them grow. Worked for a landscape business as a teenager for a few years and the owner taught me a lot. But, the wife does most of the landscape choices and I just put it in the ground. That is, except this one corner by the pool. I've grown varieties of lily flowers since I was a young kid. These orange ones are popping this spring.

^ flowers always warm up any environment

I had these delivered to mom last Friday for mother's day

our wonderful neighbors helped her plant them :)

I do this every year, one of the managers of the nursery in blues springs oversees a great selection and punctual delivery ;)

they're actually all very nice folks there https://www.colonialgardenskc.com/
