On the news, two die in Florida from a tornado. That got me to thinking about the devastation Hurricane Andrew caused. It leveled mobile home parks in Florida and homes that weren't built to code. Some of the house devastated, the nails holding the decking down missed the rafters. In another neighborhood where building standards were followed, those homes faired better.
As for me, Indiana has its share of tornadoes. I'll take my chances in stick build house with a basement that passed a building inspection. The house might be leveled, but there is the basement. Some homes even have a safe room. Do you have a safe room or basement?
Four things I don't look forward to, hail, tornadoes, straight line winds and ice storms. They leave me a mess to clean up, not to mention repairs.
Then I got to thinking about those on YT who want to convert a pole barn into a house, no building codes to follow. Is that really a good thing? How well will a tall pole barn last in a straight line wind, tornado, roofs holding up under a snow load?
If you can't tell, I don't have anything to do today except read the news on internet, 2 degrees and -14 wind. BURRRRRRR

The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
