Some pics for Hugh

I've got some pics of the crops too if anyone is interested.

Of course all I grow anymore is a garden. Marg. and I were out this morning before the sun got hot, tidying up the last of our weeding, "we hope". Needless to say my volumes dictate the old hand hoeing. We don't grow a lot of variety either, just what we cant get fresh at local markets. Sugar peas, green and yellow beans, onions, tomatoes, carrots, beets, cucumbers and hot peppers round out our list, and we have enough of that to do some trading. The guy I used to drive truck for is close by and he grows cabbage, sweet corn, broccoli, cauliflower and zichini. He loves sugar peas, beets and beans, keeps my bargaining power in order.

I like your Lilliston rolling cultivators and the setup. I don't have a set of those. I have been planning on adding that to my cultivating equipment. I have run across a few 3 point 4 row units that one could harvest enough good parts for equiping a SA, but the owners didn't want to sell. I saw one at a consignment auction this spring. When the sale day came it was so damn cold, I'd decided an old fart like me was far better off by the fireside.

I contacted the Lilliston company, and advised I would be interested in buying new, 2 right and 2 left 5 wheel gangs. They advised me the dealer in the area would be contacting me. I guess he's not very hungry.
