Well, after work today I'm going home, grabbing the wife and baby and stroller, and heading into town to look at some antique tractors at the county fair. I drove by yesterday and lots of red had already assembled!

They're having a tractor ride today around the county but unfortunately I wasn't able to go. I didn't find out until it was too late for me to get my schedule changed around for today. But after they get done riding around enjoying the cold front that moved in last night giving us predicted high's in the 70's, they're going back to the fair grounds for a tractor show tonight at 7:00. I'll be my 7 week olds first tractor show!

I guess since she can't talk yet she won't be asking me why my M isn't painted up and clean like those pretty tractors, but when she does I'll tell her my M isn't done farming yet. And that when she gets it, if it's done farming, she can paint it up all pretty and put a straight nose and hood on her. In the mean time though I need to put new hydralic hookups to the side to run my log splitter without taking off whatever I have on the back (it has live hydro off the cam), weld up a 3pt attachment on my splitter to move it around, heat houser for blading snow this winter, replace some links in her tire chains, etc.

later,
scruffy

Scruffy, it's just almost impossible to get some of the old Farmalls to actually retire, those tractors know what they were built for, and they just want to keep doing it. Sounds like you are doing a fine job with the wee one. I have a couple of grandaughters, 5 and 7, that beg for a tractor ride every time they are out. I set them in my lap on the H with power steering and let them have the steering wheel, at half throttle in low gear they do an excellent job of driving around the obstacle course that my back yard has become.

Yep, my wife was saying earlier this month that in a couple years I'll need to take our daughter to the local 4th of july parade so she can get the candy they throw out to the kids. I laughed and said that the old M is hooking up to my short hayrack and our daughter is going to ride with her grandpa on it and she'll be the one throwing the candy!!!

Well, they'll throw most of candy, I'm sure her and grandpa will keep atleast some for themselves. ;-)

later,
scruffy
