Back South Again with More Projects

Image
A lot of driving. I have forgotten how much driving is involved when on the farm. Everything is far. But I also had to drive up and back twice to Syracuse to pickup/drop off Angie at the airport and a business meeting for Wisdomino in Albany. Yeah it was a lot of driving. All and all it was about 4000 miles in three weeks. Early in the morning I decided to check out some auctions (dangerous). I ended up being high bidder on a 2015 New Holland Boomer 33 ( "hours unknown, does not run, may have problems, no key, no battery" ) from the State of Tennessee. I figured I could swing by Nashville and pick it up on the way to Georgia. And indeed I did. It was only a couple of hours extra, maybe 4. But, it was more efficient than going to Georgia and then back and forth to Nashville. Nashville is about 4 hours from Duluth. So I was looking at a 4 hour savings. After I go through it and getting if working I will tow it up to the farm in NY. I wasn't prepared for a tractor pic...

The pics below are of John McKinney's dad and his ultralight aircraft. They are are kind of old. But I don't think I ever posted them. Cool stuff. Click pic for video
Finally a ''digital pen'' that works? (Anders Jacobsen's blog) Ahhh...!... What a pain in the ass. Although, I have to say these things get easier to use... but maybe not to fix. Good Quote: "Junk is the stuff we throw away. Stuff is the junk we keep" Stop back Pictures are on the way!
I hope this thing gets working soon. It is a host issue.

Blogger not working for some reason

Well I hope this works. Not having the blogger working for a while is really a nuscience. It appears there may have been multiple problems.
