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 have a cold. I am getting better at dealing with colds. Avoiding over-the-counter remedies is a good first step. Either they don't work or the side effects are worse than the symptoms. I need to use my neti pot more regularly, and avoid life I suppose. So, I got to catch up on YouTube videos, clean the basement. Cook chili, enjoy the fall foliage. We had our first fire for the season. It is not really cold, but the furnace has come on, time to burn wood, not gas.
