Good deal on the engine Farmer!  I hope it's ok.

It's also good to hear from you and know that you are
feeling better.

It wasn't to be this year (again) but I'm very determined to make it next
year...
Among a few other problems Diana was getting her gall bladder removed a
couple of weeks ago. She came through it quite well and has recovered
quickly.
I got an email from my cardiologist today which indicates that he isn't
going to divorce me for dropping the Lipitor and Zetia... This old body
"really" dislikes that stuff. The biggest problem it caused for me was the
muscle pain and damage. It also really screws up brain function. I thought
I could keep taking the Zetia but after a while it made me extremely short
of breath, as in almost unable to function. It only took about a week off
of it to show improvement. When I was on both it reached the point where I
was feeling worse than before the bypass... I feel like I am starting over
again... Muscle pain is going away and strength is slowly coming back.

Tractor content: Son Scott and I went to a tractor show and consignment
auction recently (Greensburg IN) and I hit it lucky. One of the 8N Fords I
have waiting in the tool shed has a badly freeze broken and very roughly
welded "patch job" on the block. At the sale I bought an 8N Ford engine (in
pieces) for $30. It was the block, pan, fan and water pump along with all
of the internal parts. At a quick look it all looks pretty good. I'll get
Scott to help me get it on a shelf or cart some place to store it. I
couldn't pass that one up.
