It was a really nice day today. Started putting the tractor back together (between naps).

Finished painting the chassis today.

Got only a little done today. Here's why:

Larry, you need one of these.








It looked this way about 20 years ago when I last painted it.

Tractor update: The chassis has been completely cleaned and sprayed with primer.

February 24, 2007

Well, it's been a month since I last posted. The tree that blew down is almost history having been burned in the shop stove. Our weather has been pretty nice with warm temperatures during most days. I spend most days in the shop working on the Massey Ferguson tractor. We started out just doing a few repairs and then decided to clean it up and paint it. It's been slow work since Drew has been working a lot of overtime at the fire station. I work a little and then sit in my recliner in the shop (thanks, Dawn) and rest and take short naps. I enjoy my time even though I don't get a lot done. Emily spends a lot of time at the kids sports events (soccer, tennis, basketball, track, jump-rope, etc).

I will post a few pictures as the tractor progresses.

Snow on the Prairie

Thought the snow would make you lonesome for the "Great North". I haven't read what National Geographic had published about North Dakota, but were there any pictures as pretty as this in the article? Probably will get 4 inches of snow today, according to the weather man, but I think we already have that and it is only 11 Am.
