Watched Pot is Starting to Boil

Went by the local red shop today and checked on my largest child.

Repairs are done, and paint is just about all entirely peeled off to bare metal. All dents filled and one or two little cracks to weld yet on one fender and then it appears it is almost ready for primer.

It seems like if these guys don't slow down a little bit, I'm gonna have to buy a comfort cover to get the silly thing idled up over ranchman’s mountain, on out across buzzard sands, then on in here to poverty hill. That's a darned long ride in January.

Wonder if the wife would do it for me? She really should have a little tractor time too, ya know. I could follow her with the old pickup, the dog and a thermos of coffee. :>)

Sorry Allen, I just couldn't resist...

I wonder if this is gonna be one of those years that the tractors can git to the fields in February.

This is one open winter! I'm seriously considering getting out the garden hoses and spongin' off the vehicles around here. Can't remember it in the mid 60s in January like this.

'Taint complainin', but I feel another dry year comin' on. :>(

Allan

Yes, see what you mean. I really should be more thoughtful.

So, I'm going to let her write one of these jaw-breaker checks so that she feels like she is really a part of the fun and games. :>)
