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

Things are good. I am working from home for Accuray, Inc. in my home in Duluth GA... Maybe for quite awhile. I like it. A friend said it makes sense for me. I am getting a new battery in Leaf west in California. It will meet Leaf east in Georgia in a few weeks. They have never met. I should be back in the air back here in Georgia soon. We are looking to buy our 5th plane, likely at C172 (R Model). Jewell and Gracie enjoy their space here in Georgia. The house projects are progressing well and hope to have the boat in the water this weekend after its retrofit. Master bath remodel is more than the halfway point.
