The Nissan Leaf on the Farm

Image
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

Fall in the Atlanta area is very nice. Clear crisp days in the 60s and 70s. Today is a perfect day for flying, but I have a cold that has been messing up my sinuses. So no flying. The last thing I need is to have a dizzy spell when I am in the plane. We went on a hike yesterday in one of the many confederate army memorial parks in the region. This time it was at Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park.
