[AT] quiet

It has been an unusually mild December so far, but too chilly to do any
outdoor tractor stuff. We are expecting a "white Christmas" here in NW
NJ, but not the kind anyone wants: a mixture of rain, freezing rain, and
ice, with a little snow on top of that to make it "interesting". Santa
is going to need Rudolph's help tonight.

Otherwise, the only machinery I am working on is an old Honda riding
mower that was given to me after sitting under a neighbor's deck for the
last 5+ years. I have it pretty much 95% back and working, but the
clutch is stuck. I "bit the bullet" and ordered a workshop manual, so I
have a feeling that tearing into the transaxle/clutch will be my January
project.

Best wishes to all for the Holidays and a very Happy New Year,

Mike
