Another happy lawn customer.
This one was excessively tall and thick most places so had to cut it high this time as to not cut too much of at one time since you should only cut a third of the grass length in one mow.

When your drive belt and transmission fan come to the end of their lifespan ( 26 ish years ) on a hydrostatic mower, what do you do? Replace them and keep it going.
First if the belt is still intact take a picture of the belt routing if not Google the routing for your specific mower. This one is an LT155.
Next lower and remove the mower deck starting with the hanger brackets in the back then the front. Remove the deck belt from the PTO and slide deck out.
Next follow procedure from removing belt. In most cases you'll need to remove the PTO then loosen tensioner pulleys. And some mowers have the belt routed around the drag links/steering arms which will need to be taken loose.
Then remove belt, next take off your tire to gain access to transmission fan ( keep in mind there will probably be a keyway on the axle shaft so don't lose that) by removing spring clip and unbolting fan from pulley and installing new one or replace with new assembly ( again dependant on model)
Then reinstall fan assembly on transmission shaft then belt routed properly and reconnect everything you had to take off to get to the belt.
Before installing deck start the mower and check to make sure it will go in forward and reverse otherwise you'll have to take the deck off again if it won't move.

Pruning Fruit Trees: Why It Matters

Pruning is one of the best things you can do to keep fruit trees healthy, productive, and easier to manage. Removing dead, damaged, diseased, or overcrowded branches allows more sunlight and air to reach the center of the tree. This can help reduce disease problems and encourage better-quality fruit.

For many common fruit trees, late winter to early spring—while the tree is still dormant—is an excellent time for major pruning. Without leaves in the way, it’s also much easier to see the tree’s structure and decide which branches need attention.

When pruning, look for:
-Dead, damaged, or diseased wood
-Branches that cross or rub against each other
-Branches growing inward toward the center
-Excessive upright “water sprouts”
-Crowded growth that blocks sunlight and airflow

Young fruit trees benefit from thoughtful pruning because it helps establish a strong shape that can support future crops. Mature trees may need pruning to maintain their structure, improve light pe*******on, and encourage productive new growth.

One important reminder: more pruning isn't always better. Removing too much healthy growth at once can stress a tree and cause excessive new shoots. The goal is to improve the tree—not simply make it smaller.

A little attention during pruning season can pay off with a healthier tree, stronger branches, and better fruit for years to come.
