Hello, what does everyone have planned for the day ??? and if you get it done....how do you wish to get rewarded ???/
 
Im goint to a tractor show and If its nice enough Im going to drive it home. As for the reward? A couple cold beers I guess!!!!!!!
 
Going to start some tomato seeds. Probably too early here in Colorado, but will any way. 6 to 8 weeks would put them out in the middle of May.
 
painting the tractor.

Probabally not. I'll likely just spend the day sanding it some more. Got all the wheels off as well as all the sheet metal and external engine parts. Wish me luck
 
I'm installin' a thicker gold sight on My 1911 single stack, and hope to get in some trigger time today.....I'm gettin' out of LIMITED class and HI CAP pistols, I've built every HI Cap 1911 clone there is to build from...Nothin' fits My hand like a Single Stack 1911 so I'm goin' over to Limited 10...Hope to have time to remove the final drive covers from My "SUPER SUPER "A" (The one with the over 133 cu in engine), clean and change the fluid
 
Going to take the cover off the old motorcycle and prep it so she's ready for the year. A couple of years ago I bought an '84 Honda V65 Sabre which has a neat V4 arrangement. It's got power to spare and sounds like a nasty V8 when you get on it hard. Hadn't ridden for many years, but use it to save gas (that's my excuse for the wife) and mainly ride it to work and back.

We're getting up in to the mid 50's today (Southern Wisconsin) so it should be a nice day to check her out. My reward is a nice ride on a beautiful day.

Go to town and get more 2x8's for my project parade haywagon. Paint and wheels tires are done. Long rails made up from laminated materials. Just working my way forward from the rear now.
Also gotta install pyrometer in the Dodge Cummins.

Gordo
 
Lanse! It's good to hear you got the B running. What parts from the C made it on there?


My plans: fix the flat on our truck, plant the first round of seeds (indoors), fix the stove pipe in the greenhouse.
 
pistons, sleeves, manifold, govenor, air cleaner and a few other things.

I cant wait until its dry enough to start plowing
 
Get cracking on splitting fire wood for next season and filling the wood shed. Gonna by about 45 here today. Take care of the cows like every day. I dont want to be monkeying with wood when hay season starts. This way it gets a looooong time to season. No rewards for me!j
 
Cleaning the garage, so I can see and walk from the overhead to the tool box with out steping over or around anything
Rewarded???
IF I get R Done, I'll sit in the far corner, look out and relax with a cup of coffee and smoke my pipe

Just bought my first tractor and trying to identify it, going to go out in a bit and play around with it, she's old but doesnt quit, she has been in this valley almost her entire career. I am the 7th owner.
Happy Sunday all
 
I just watched Charles Stanley, a very good preacher on the Tele. Getting ready to go to my Grandaughter"s 5th birthday party. So far a Great Day.
 
Woke up with a heck of a ringin' in my ears. Favorite son and a buddy came rollin' in here last night with a case of Molson XXX. I looked in on them a little while ago, they're still breathing so I guess they're ok. Yes the old man can still handle his booze. So I'm finishing up some stainless work and running my laundry this morning. With any luck I'll be done with it before the wife gets home from church. Otherwise any morning that I wake up is usually considered a good one.
 
Well i helped my buddy Saturday and his two little friends move 900 bales of clover into 5 kicker wagons. Was rewarded with Chicken and Jojo's along with a 24 pack of mountain dew. Well after lunch we had finished wagon 3 and had to go back and unload the last two to fill them up with clover. After that was done we brought them both back and fill one up with all the broke/loose hay the way in the hayloft. Then headed to the other farm to feed the cattle. We arrived in 10min. on the tractor, dumped all in the hay in the pasture, and fed them their corn. Now we headed back and loaded wagon 4. My buddies dad came over to pick it up and head back to the farm but he also needed me to help pull some new wire for the new barn (60x120). When i had arrived back they were working on wagon 5 and i helped finished by throwing to the stacker on the wagon. Now here come the reward, My buddy pulls the wagon forward but cant get them darn latches on the front gate of the wagon hitched. so he figured he would move it to level ground, didn't work. So then he figures he would angle the front left tire up this little incline next to the paved driveway. Instead he angles the tounge too far and bends the tounge(12 ton running gear)! Now i was cleaning up loose hay while this happened. Guess i should have been watching him... We look at it and wonder if it is safe enough to that back to the farm. Well we made it and he told his dad. (wasn't Happy at all) Well the only reward I received from this was waking up to a sore back.
 
I've already watched U.S. Farm Report, Prairie Farm Report , and been to church. As soon as I log off the computer, I'm going to change clothes, go get the battery for my S Case of the charger, buy 5 gallons of gas, and go see if it will start so I can drive it in the St. Patrick's Day parade on Tuesday. I guess you Irish could call me an Orangeman but it's really Flambeau Red..
 
I'm just gonna take the dog for a good walk and come back inside. If I go to the shop I'll try to do something. Put a simple muffler clamp on the S-10 yesterday and the arm hurt like *&&^ for the rest of the day. It was four and a half weeks since the shoulder surgery and I'm getting grumpy not doing anything. Maybe a little whiny too! Have a good one and enjoy spring. The robins are here in force, the geese are flying over and the dog is getting frisky. No, he can't do THAT anymore. Jim
 
Hanging out with momma and my wonderful 7 month old son this morning. He's not like his daddy, he's always in a great mood in the mornings! I'll cook 'em breakfast (momma will make his fresh from the tap)of eggs and country sausage from a pig we put up this winter. Maybe he'll take a nap and me and momma can have some fun! Around 2 going over to my b.i.l's for some skeet shooting. Got a new Benelli Supernova turkey gun, gonna see how it shoots the clays with the skeet choke installed, awsome shotgun. If it doesn't do well, I'll go back to my Remington 870 Wingmaster my dad bought in 1969, it's a good one too. Then, we'll probably fry some venison up for supper with mash potatoes and cabbage. That's life here in North Florida!
 
Im heading out in a few minutes to feed the cows. 7 rolls a week in the rings, every Sunday afternoon. Then I've got to make my Sunday hay deliveries. One lady gets one round bale and one square bale, another gets 4 round bales. Then maybe a little online shopping.
 
Well: I have spent all morning cleaning and sorting throw away stuff [catologs,ads,print outs etc] in my studio.What!! Well can't an Artist be a Tractor Lover too?? I like old and new Tractors,Trucks,Farms,RV's,any thing going on at this Site and the other one.I have had a lifetime infatuation with drawing and painting but have been on the wrong end of a # 12 aluminum scoop many,many times and have hung a Surge Milker on the spigots of a humble old Guernsey when I was a Kid so many times and hung a Delavel 4 claw on a huge old Holstien when I as an young adult thought I could make a go of it in the 70's as a Dairy Farmer.For give a humble Painter for wishing he could do it all over again.If I knew then what I know now.I now paint the Desert Southwest as I see it but I keep a Herd of Ertl 1/16 scale Tractors and Machinery to remind me of those days. .JC
 
David Jeremiah, J. Vernon McGee (he's dead but still is on a 100 or so radio stations around the world) are some other great ones. I could ad a few more to this list if I could get my brain to remember.
 
What kind of banjo do you play John?

I've been trying for about 7 or 8 years.

I've got a Deering Boston model.

I only been at it a lil over a year now, I have an ODE 5 string, still a novice banjo picker wannabee...... I play the Scruggs 4 note forward alternating roll for about everything and can play at jams in most keys where its those simple 3 or 4 chord songs

What you play??????

Did you pick up the discbine you were lookin at? THere is an auction coming up in MD with a bunch of Ford 77XX tractors, a NH 411 discbine, and a round baler. Maybe you oughta come up this way and buy the whole deal!
 
You guys have no clue how much i hate sanding. I think im going to buy a sandblaster someday. This sucks. I spent all weekend in the garage with a palm sander. Now i just get to go over everything with 180 and we'll be good for priming. Sweet.
 
also watch and support stanley I have been taping a fellow named Les Feldick for a year now no preaching just bible study I get him on dish 262 angel I think also Ion He has a website
 
Lanse, I agree, sanding sucks. Every tractor I have ever painted, I had sandblasted. The last one I did, it was $100 to blast it. Money well spent as far as I was concerned. There are some preparations you need to do before blasting, but it's well worth it. Plus, you get all the rust and old paint off where your sander can't reach.
Got a big compressor in your shop? I got one of those Harbor Freight stand up blasting cabinets and it works the devil out of my 80 gal 3hp compressor. I got a 2nd compressor just like it and one will run constant and the 2nd will cycle on and off.
 
John, I'm working on the Scruggs style. I can play a couple songs pretty good at home, but seem to choke in public. . .

My favorite is "What a Friend We Have In Jesus" in G, of course. Also like "Will There Be Any Stars In My Crown" in C. Both songs are made for the banjo - all the notes pretty well in the natural chord shapes.

I always play it on Untalent Night in our church, which falls on the fifth sunday, four times a year.

I'm 60 years old, and don't think I'll ever be a blazing fast banjo picker, but I love the instrument. I'm a lot better on the guitar, but still not anything to write home about on it either.

Do you ever go to Rosine, KY for the fall festival? We've been a couple times - good one!

Keep on pickin'!

Paul
 
Should be at the sugarhouse right now getting ready to boil more sap today. Got a late start yesterday, and didn't get supper till nearly 10PM. Everything that can actually move, hurts this morning, and I won't have any help until the kids get home from school. Thank god for maple sap tubing, I sure couldn't face, gathering buckets.
