There's a LARGE farm sale three miles from me tomorrow. A big operator had most of the land he rented sold out from under him so he decided to retire.
Now, after all the snow melting, the frost coming out of the ground, and a week of steady rain with more forecast during the auction, I don't know where anyone is going to park. It's on a blacktop road, but the shoulders are still soft from being widened a couple of years ago, if you drove a pickup onto a field it would sink and you'd never see it again, I doubt you could even park on gravel a half mile away and walk back.
A cousin of mine has a construction company across the road with most of a large area rocked, but he's made his feelings plain by parking double engined earth movers across both of his driveways and I can't say as I blame him. He doesn't need to have his area destroyed over his neighbor's auction.

There was one steam tractor in the Valley, owned by an entrepeneur who used it to run his grain threshing machine, that he hauled from farm to farm for the fall harvest. We used teams of horses not only on the stacker, but on the buckrake to buck the dried
