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

Exciting times! Busy. I sold a "barn find" tube audio pre-amp for almost $1200 yesterday, something that I rescued from the scrap heap. Coaching and self-development is (and will) pay off. Honesty, integrity and a never relenting quest for " #bettereveryday " is where I live. It does not matter where you start.

Happy Labor day. It is one of the few Holidays in the US that businesses and the government has off. It is not to say that there aren't people working in services for sure. Here is how we grill here at the Dowdell home. I welded up a second grill that allows a pizza to get smokey and hot. I was very interested in building a brick oven many years ago. I am glad I didn't. The Weber grill works great and the possibilities are near endless.
