For the past 40 years or so I've been saving lumber out of buildings I've torn down. Built a two tiered rack that was maybe 18' long by 14' wide in the old machine shed to store it. Through the years I've used almost all of it to fix up the old buildings when I had hogs. Never used new lumber for many years because I had my own little lumber yard right there in the shed. The hogs are long gone, the buildings are pretty well fixed up and I need the storage space the lumber rack is taking up so today I cleaned it out. All that was left was 1X lumber that wasn't much good and was being eaten up by sawdust bugs or whatever you call them. But after I started hauling it out I was surprised how much was still there, must have been a couple of tons worth or so. It's all in a pile burning right now and when I look at it I think of all the labor it took to tear down the buildings, clean nails, haul, stack it and now my aching body is telling me how much work it was to haul it back out. Now it's going up in flames. I should have only saved the 2X framing lumber and burned the thin stuff right away, but, doggone it, it's there so why not? Jim

I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
