    Yep, this is what I want to read.
    Going to be a few weeks before we get to the fields. Ground
started thawing last week and the last of the snow is gone. The
ground is so muddy and sticky thet when you walk on it, each
step pulls a plug of mud that sticks to your boots.
    Anxious to get my airstrip worked and seeded.
    I did get out and seed some grass around the new barn. Hope
it germinates alright.

                    Gene

: See if this is more of what you had in mind Gene.
:
: Dad carried the M to the field yesterday and gave it a good
working. Had
: about 6 acres to roll with the culti-packer. Ground was a
little soft and in
: good order so it pulled pretty hard. Actually dropped over a
quart of oil.
: With temps in the 70's springtime is just around the corner.
Can't hardly
: wait to get in the field. Pretty soon it'll be time to put
the cultivators
: on one of the Super A's and bed up some garden.
:
: Oh, yeah, had to buy a battery for the 4020 last week.
:
: And the baler needs to go in the shop to have the knife
: adjusted/replaced/sharpened.
:
: Need to put a starter gear in dads DC Case.
:
: Got to pick up a a set of rear sweeps for the Super A
cultivator.
:
: And dad just sent our last IH 450 automatic plow to a
dealership to sell it
: for him. Only tobacco farmers plow around here anymore.
Everyone else is
: no-till.
: First time in my life there is not a plow on the farm.
:
: Yeah Gene, I'd say there is plenty of tractor related stuff
going on around
: here. How about your house?
