I posted this over on the tool section by accident/brain fart/old age. LOL So it is posted twice.
My best friend in the world is this way. He has a 1999 Ford 250 that only has 33K on it. The truck has never set out side since he owned it. It only has 33,000 miles on it. You could eat in the bed. It does not have a scratch anywhere on it even in the bed. HE has a goose neck hitch in it. HE made a rubber mat to lay around the hitch so the safety chain will not scratch the bed. He is kind of a funny guy. He jacks his tractors up over the winter and puts them on blocks so the tires don"t have flat spots on them. Combine too. HE even parks all of the equipment in his machine shed on strips of carpet as he does not want them to leave black marks on the concrete. LOL. I have seen him down on his hands and knees scrubbing the shed floor with a scrub brush to remove an oil spot. I don"t mean a puddle I mean one single spot. He has equipment that is fifty years old but it does not have a single leak on it anywhere. I have torn down equipment completely to replace a seal that might leak a drop a week. If he owns it it will be clean and dry. LOL
His wife is the same way. She mops the kitchen floor before and after every meal. She came over and helped my first wife while she was fighting cancer. We had an old tile floor in the kitchen. My Grand Mother had it put in when I was a kid. The floor was white forty years ago but it had yellowed over time. It was not yellow after the she cleaned the house a few times. She some how had it back sparkling white. The kids would not go into the house when she was cleaning. They complained that she would scrub them so clean it hurt. LMAO She is a great woman. I am surprised that they allow the dirt out in the fields to be not kept neat. LOL
They did milk cows for fifty years (they are in their mid 70s now). The milk inspector used to joke that the barn was dirtier after he left than before because he had walked in it. LOL The wife kept the ally ways mopped. I mean where the cow came into the tie stall barn. After the cows came back in to the barn she would scrap the manure into the barn cleaner and then mopped the walk ways. They kept all the floors in the barn painted battle ship gray. They where kept clean too. Never had a high cell count or a bad batch of milk in all the time they sold milk. They only had had forty stalls. They are not what "modern" milking has become. They had every cow named and could tell you when she was born and who her whole blood line was. They brushed the cows down every day. Claimed that it kept the cows cleaner so the milk counts where better.
I will not even go into their garden. Lets just say a bug or weed is not safe there. LOL With them not doing any live stock farming any longer, just crops, they have the time to make everything PERFECT. So it is.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
