What's new? I have had FIVE accidents making a left turn into my farm lane. Latest was an idiot on a motorcycle who passed a car before he laid it down. I just saw him in time to hit the brakes. He wound up just in front of the rear tire of the tractor, his bike about three feet in front of the no til coulters on the grain drill. The left turn signal was on, and the car was waiting for me to complete my turn. Several cars have done a 'General Lee' across my lawn and the neighbors' lawn. One ran into the side of the manure spreader; another sliced her car open from the hood to the trunk going under the loader. One hit the rear tire on the tractor, and another took off the combine ladder. And now the county wants to develop a master plan to put bicycle lanes along the roads. Your tax dollars being frittered away for a small 'elite' group with a lot of whine.
I got the county to put a warning sign down the road a couple of hundred yards before the farm entrance, and I put a big (liberated, of course) 'No Passing Zone' sign in my front yard and it has done little, if any, good. I don't think the fools can read. So, just do what my grandkids do. Get a little book of stickers from 'Cars'. Every time there is another accident with a tractor around here, they put another sticker on the side of the tractor, kind of like they did on fighter planes during the war when they shot down an enemy plane. I guess that makes me an "ace".

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
