Machinery Infatuation

I bought my first NEW piece of farm machinery. I am not sure if this is a failure or a success, but it is different. I picked up a NEW Rotary Cutter (bush hog, brush hog, mower, etc) from a dealer. It cost me almost as much as the tractor did with its bits of hardware and options. It seems to work well on the CNH Boomer 33. I planned on getting up to NY in the next couple of days, but Gracie has been sick.. she has been up and down. The steroid treatment and a change in diet seem to be helping at this point. Besides hauling the tractor and mower up to NY I have numerous events planned over the next month. I will be in Charlotte for a conference as well as Tucson Arizona and of course other events and activities. I started installing radio equipment in the Humvee.

We just went thru a major reorgization in our flying club. I received a significant dividend as well as other perks. It was a great move to grow the club and make it even more sustainable. I sold "my" 172 into the club as the third aircraft. We are now looking to purchase our 7th aircraft. Our latest plane is a PA-28-236 a Piper Dakota. It is very cool. Aeroventures Great People. Great Club. I will be flying more. It is a great hobby. I didnt get the boat in the water yet. The spirit didn't hit me. For sure though that doesn't mean I am sitting around-- much. I decided to finally hang the two canvas hanging chairs that my late Brother James and late Sister-in-law Mary bought us. I made some great brackets and mounted them very well in the gazebo at the lake behind the house. I also added a wifi repeater. I am proud of how I attached the hippie chairs after thinking about how over the years. Mary, James, your seats are ready.
