[Farmall] lets talk Farmalls

[Rob]

Newbie Rob here...

I've got a deposit down on a '47 H w/ loader and box scraper. No heavy 
work for this old girl...just some landscaping and fixing/maintaining 
the 3/4 mile of county un-maintained dirt road. My wife and I now live 
on 2.5 acres just outside Ridgecrest California...2.5 may not be much in 
Farm counrty but this recently retired from the Navy city boy sure likes 
it! My 4 yr old actually wants to be outside rather than camped out in 
front of the idiot box <jumps for joy!>

Looking forward to when my H gets here and I can pla...er...put 'er to work!
