I saw a BCS when I bought the Honda, but it was just tiller (I think you could order implements for it. They were about the same price, but the Honda has 2 forwward speeds (which about doubles the price.) I got it half off, though, since I lived in TN at the time and after 4 years of drought, the dealer has been sitting on it a long time. I've kept this tiller so long because I don't want to put out the bucks for a new 2 speeder, and I won't have it any other way.

thank you, that is just what i was looking for. there are so many talented people on here i am so glad i joined gw. i am learning so much and getting so many ideas on here that i am driving my poor dh crazy but he loves it too.

@dhygarden, I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner. It's so hard to recover from the loss of a good friend. I also lost a good friend and neighbor at the end of October last year. She was fighting ovarian cancer and seemed to be doing quite well when she suddenly passed away from a stroke. I see her husband and their little Yorkie, Oliver whenever I walk by the house. Oliver sometimes comes running over to visit if his "dad" is working in the garage. He has a crush on my Siamese. I hope you are healing. I enjoyed reading everyone's posts and seeing your photos as well. I also fell in love with Ingrid's little dog! I adore cats and dogs.

"Is this tree going to survive.... with only a couple of leaves? Sure will. Anything that's green will photosynthesize. Is it a set back? Sure is, the tree will now have to use energy from the roots to produce more leaves, to meet it's needs. Is it a big deal? No, not on such a small tree, by end of summer, you won't hardly know anything happened. BUT, you don't want it to happen repeatedly. Things can go down hill fast then, if it does.
