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

We had quite a bit of heavy-wet snow this week. The drifts got as big as I can remember around here. They got so big the llamas wouldn't go through them. They get nervous when the snow gets deeper than their legs are long. So I had to shovel a way through the drifts for them. Snowshoeing is on the agenda for later today. There is a barbecue grill and a picnic bench totally hidden in that snow.
