Use a very soft paint brush work the pollen off the flowers from one tree onto the brush than brush the flowers you want

tetonper, I have a DSG 6500 with the 6 spd. manual. I'm a newbie compared to most of the guys on this forum but I LOVE my little tractor! To my mind the 6 spd is more rugged. A lot depends on what you use it for. Is your property hilly or flat? Do you use a lot of ground engaging implements or mostly just mowing? Hilly and ground engaging I would go with the manual. Hydro's tend to die on the hills. Relatively flat and just mowing the hydro should be fine. Regardless, if you get the hydro don't believe the "no maintainence required" propaganda. If I had purchased a more expensive tractor like a JD or Kubota I would not be as worried about the hydro but with Craftsman I needed to be as bullet proof as I could. I have a sleeve hitch and a moldboard plow, a JBJr on the front and multiple other attachments so mowing is only a small part of the jobs I do with my tractor. Have fun in your search! There are also some good used deals out there if you know what you are doing. I didn't when I bought so I went new.

The duct system being in the attic could be a major factor... Some easy simple ways for anyone to check the performance of their air-conditioning system Try to check the run time and off times of the air-conditioning system and write down the outdoor temperature; it's best to do this on the hottest days and even when the humidity is at its highest. Let's say the air conditioner runs for 15 minutes, then off for 15 minutes before it restarts, that's a total of 30 minutes for complete cycle so you take 15 minutes and divided by 30 minutes and you get .5 or 50% runtime; will say I have 2 ton air conditioner but due to ductwork and other factors that will not deliver even 23,000 BTU per hour instead figure 90% of 23,000 and multiply that figure is 20,700-Btuh by * .5 that is only 10,350-Btu used per hour. That formula can be used for any complete time span cycle. Another formula is the EER or energy efficiency ratio formula; the BTU per hour divided by the wattage used. Another way to use the formula is to take the BTU/hr and divided by the units EER rating. Let's say the air conditioner as a nominal rating of 23,000 BTU per hour divided by a 9.5 EER that is 2,421 Watts of power used. A technician can then taken amp probe and multiply the amps times the checked voltage which will equal Watts the unit is actually drawing. From that reading you can figure what its actual EER is. Another way to verify what the load is, is to do a load Calc; I'll provide you with the free online load Calc with which you can experiment with until you get a proper load Calc performed, which you will then have to print out because you cannot save your load Calc's. Then go outside and take the temperature of the discharge air and subtract the outdoor temperature from it. On a 10 and 12 seer condenser the indoor split at 50% relative humidity and 80ðF will should be around 19 to 22ðF. The outdoor condenser split should also be between 19 and 22ðF.

My mother in law, in the UK, often rents a mobility scooter while touring. They have ones with pneumatic tires and shocks designed for cobblestones. https://www.suncoastmobility.com/blogs/education-center/the-best-mobility-scooters-for-european-cobblestones-narrow-elevators-a-real-travelers-guide-to-moving-comfortably-across-historic-cities?srsltid=AfmBOoroq_rWVuBY87v5MphMI_Nr8j9myRVDBxTMzmSY6T5U03WNiMKi
