The Nissan Leaf on the Farm

-

With tribute to USDA and other government furnished information of the post war advice converting Model-Ts to tractors --"Doodle Bugs". I towed the resurrected rear-ended 2013 Nissan Leaf up to Berkshire, NY from Duluth, GA. It is now in field trials as a farm machine in Upstate NY. Despite the lack of current ground clearance it is performing well in dirt and mud. I will be skidding firewood very soon. https://journal.classiccars.com/2018/06/08/doodlebug-1923-ford-model-t-tractor/ https://www.thehenryford.org/collections/explore/artifact/188731?AssetId=THF811118

I was excited to hear the national spelling bee was to be on "regular TV" a couple of days ago. I was very much in agreement with the news hour, in regards to "That it is great to see kids get this kind of recognition for mental achievement not just achievement in athletics". I remember writing a great paper regarding the "revenge of the nerds take II". Just like when Bill Gates and all the other non-bureaucratic engineers started to get real attention from their achievements we will see information savvy folks do the same. Forgive them they know not what they do. Ask the folks who are working the Google enterprise.

I don't have my camera for a couple of days. I forgot it when we were in Jamestown and now it is just one county away. During your journey, always remind yourself that when it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps." ------J. Dajour Ashwood Outgoing Area Governor 17 The big one-way one-shot journey... ' I can only imagine what the "sigh" in angle brackets will turn up some day in the semantic web. Folks who read this cannot see the tags. All information should be tagged by information type. We saw the conditions were right for a rainbow on the farm tonight. We looked a little bit, then decided to do other things.
