To quote a letter written by George Washington, speaking of South-Western Pennsylvania:

"If I was a young man, just preparing to begin the world, I know of no country where I would rather find my habitation than in some part of that region." - G. Washington

I happen to agree with him. It's about a 3 minute car ride for me to get to a piece of land he owned until his death.

I know I complain about how steep it is, almost every day, and I complain a lot, but really, this is the only place that I would ever call home. I'm in farm land, but, surrounded by a blend of industry, commerce, and white collar professionals. In 35 minutes, I can go from my living room to a stadium seat to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers, Pirates, or Penguins. In 9 minutes, I can be at an amphitheater to see major musical groups. (I think Blake Shelton is coming Aug 2nd, Jason Aldean and Jake Owen are just a few weeks after that, followed by Rascal Flatts). Smaller venue next door allows me to sit 50 feet from the stage and have dinner and a waitress all night when smaller acts are in town (Kenny Rogers loves coming there. David Allen Coe stops every year, and I think Big & Rich will be there in november)

I can get Pizza delivered to me while I am driving the tractor. they bring it out in the field. At the same time, I can hop on a quad or in my truck and run out of cellphone service in less than 15 minutes, and not see a single soul.



I'm always happy to visit other places, but, the only place I truly feel at peace is the place I call home.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
