There won't be a day for anybody who ever visited this forum before.....that won't think of Hugh MacKay.
I have an envelope containing some 3 point drawings that I got from Hugh less than a month ago. He had sent copies once before and I misplaced them....so he sent more. I sent him a 140 vegetable cultivator manual so he could make himself a copy....which he did. The thing about Hugh......obviously, he didn't think about dying, but living. Why else would a man at death's door, still be collecting Farmall literature?!!
I came to realize, quite sometime ago...that I came here to see what Hugh had had to say and while I mean no disrespect to the other posters here, the rest was just fluff.....simply idle talk.
I miss him out of proportion to our acquaintance, because I only knew him via the Internet.....but I feel like I have lost one one my best pals. I often read posts of people whining about their dog dying.....well, I/we have lost our Hugh MacKay and I confess, I am whining about it. I sure do miss him. The Farmall forum ought to be renamed the Hugh MacKay forum as a tribute to him...lest we ever forget his down to Earth contributions and gritty opinions.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
