    Those are the top half of the steel wheels on a wheel line...

    A wheel line is an sprinkler irrigation pipe up to about 1/4 of a mile long. In the center is a small engine that rund a hydraulic pump that powers a small gear box which makes the entire line roll. You set it and hookbone end to the main line and turn the water on. Usually 12 hours later you come back, unhook it from the main line and move it 3 rolls, hook it back up and repeat.

    Wheel lines were a MAJOR upgrade fron moving the same pipe (without wheels) one 40' length at a time by hand.

    Anybody ever tried to fit a pole saw blade to a handle it was not made for?
    I don't recommend it. Spent aboot an hour and it nearly beat me. Didn't have the right bits. But thanks to dear old dads vintage Craftsman electric drill got it done. My cordless wasn't cutting the mustard. One drill bit ended up in the creek lol. It better cut thru wood like hot butter.

    And who says they haven’t? They could be wearing disguise. Maybe they have been slowly taking over people like in the body snatchers. How would you know?

    You could have been body snatched and they are waiting for the right time to activate you, so they don’t want to raise any suspicion by talking to you.
