Yeah Shotgun house. My grandparents in Enterprise Al. had one that was, as I called it as I got older, a "double barrel". Three rooms down one side, front room with fire place, their bedroom, and large kitchen area with coal stove for heat. There were Grandpa, grandma and their 9 children. All gone now my mother was the last at 92 this time last year. Second three room section was staggered and attached via an open 8 foot wide breeze way, those were all bed rooms, center bedroom had fire place. Large front porch, facing the west, with a swing and three or four rocking chairs, rear porch was facing east and had a wash up place where we could get cleaned up for dinner. All this was under one shake roof. The two front rooms were built around a log framed house house which was built in late 1800's. All gone now, shake roof started to give in and it became a bit dangerous. Uncle who built next door tore it down but saved the log house inside and it was rebuilt by decendants of the origional builders in the 1980's I believe. Wow what stories this old place held. Thanks for giving me a few moments to reflect. J

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
