Since I retired, I grow about 3 or 4 acres of produce every year. I call it a hobby, my wife calls it a habit. Bought my tractor in the fall of 2017, it rolled over 1000 hours yesterday. Took delivery of 200 gallons of fuel yesterday. $3.169 per gallon!

I planted a little over an acre of sweet corn today. Will plant another acre in about two weeks.

I made my first repair to my L3901DT yesterday. Ignition switch failed at 875 hours. Found one in stock about a hundred miles away. Had a friend going that way, so by evening had a new switch in hand. Less than ten minutes to install and good as new. I was somewhat shocked by the cost of...

My drink of choice is sweet tea and vodka. If you haven't tried it, you should.

I went deer hunting on my Kubota.

My wife and I just finished harvesting our sweet corn. We sold about 15,000 ears. 18 dollars for a bag of 62 ears. 30 cents per ear, with a couple extra.

33 today. Tomorrow, who knows. I bet it won't be any less. I have a problem getting shed of my "good stuff". I just finished my newest piece yesterday. I built a counterweight for the rear of my tractor. It has ten, one hundred pound Farmall suitcase weights on it. I'll put up pictures...
