Well, now that the weather has finally turned and the hay is up I'm back working on my house again (it's been virtually on hold since spring hit and underway now for almost two years). Started laying the hardwood floors in the bedrooms this weekend - 3/4 red oak random widths (4"-6") with long runs. I'm pretty happy with how it's turning out. Once it's down I can get back to finishing the window and door casings and a few other odds and ends but I might be in the bedrooms and laundry room by late winter. These rooms were a total gut as the roof had been leaking for years in this part of the house when I got it. I've done most of the work with my dad and a few other helping hands.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
