before I could grade, I had tuh fix the tractor... kept dyin' on me... thought it was condensation in the gas, so I drained the filter and carbuerator twice... kept on dyin'... checked the coil, plugs and points but it'd run finer fer a minute and die... so's I called mrsnad's dad... he's mister fixit when it comes tuh that kinduh stuff... he said check the ignition switch... might be bad... so I bypassed the ignition (hotwired it) ran fine... then died... so I pulled the switch out and found the battery wire was loose... theguy is a genius... I think he needs tuh have his own radio call in show... heck... everytime I gotta pro'lem with machinery, he's theguy I call...

I gotta go to Walmart...tomorrow is Joshua's school party and I have to get 20 treats to take home.

I figure I'll get little boxes of those hearts that say stuff on them, you know?

You did better than we did.

Here is the brush pile we set out to burn...

Here it is when we lit it this afternoon:

Here it is a few hours later when we quit at sunset:

Think it's still too green.

Evening g'nad; "Adventures with the Tractor" I think I see what is going on, you are actually restoring the tractor, one part at a time. Sounds like a heap of busy stuff for a fella that has 'retired'. Sounds a bit like a couple others I know. Best of luck on your ongoing project.:-)
