[AJD] Tractor Grave Yard

[Dean VP]

Dave:

That is an interesting salvage yard. Not many yards that I have been in
recently have the implements in them any more. That kind of stuff seemed to
go to the scrap metal operations during the high prices.

Yesterday, my brother and I went on a little trip to a grave yard called
Windy Hills. It's located near Davenport, Iowa about 20 miles west. This
place was really cool. 30 acres or so. About 800 tractors, lots of old
planters, combines, mowers, plows, lots of old manure spreaders, lots of hay
racks and running gear and anything else you can think of.

Only thing we bought was a belt pulley for my brothers Farmall H. If anyone
wants the phone number I have it at my office and I will send it to you,
just let me know. The people that run it were very nice. The owner really
did not seem to know what all he had. They tell you where things are and
tell you to have a nice walk. They also said we should have brought lunch
with us. You could spend all day there.
