Peabody: Got to give that one serious consideration. A great many Canadians already do this part time. They actually migrate, once you become a retired old fart, it works quite well. There is one little snag for old Canadians, we can't stand your heat plus humidity in summer. The heat alone we can tolerate, thus the reason for migration. Then there is an additional problem for old iron nuts. You either have to maintain two fleets of old tractors, or haul them south in fall and north in spring. I know a couple of guys that have two fleets of tractors, they tell me the cost of security while you are away 5 to 6 months, is starting to hurt. The problem is just as great both in south and north. A certain element of society just can not resist breaking into a shed full of old tractors. These midnight salvage yards do quite well. Just another problem of the old tractor being worth more for parts than as a whole tractor.
