El Toro said: (quoted from post at 17:32:02 05/20/14) I told my mom in the late 1980's to put my sister's name on the deed on the house they bought when they quit farming in the 1950's. My brother's fifth wife had her eye on it. She even stopped by and asked her to will it to my brother. She wasn't too happy when she left. My sister inherited it when mom died. Hal
A good friend's mother died suddenly and her Dad no longer wanted the car that Mom drove, a new at the time Olds Alero (I think it was), nice car in a dark blue, leather interior and was loaded up. My friend was charged with selling it. Her money grubbing sister-in-law wanted it in the worst way but my friend said her mother absolutely despised that daughter-in-law and her mother would haunt her forever if she sold her that car. Of course money grubber wanted it cheap, but my friend needed all she could get from it to take care of her Dad who was failing fast. She ended up selling it to someone out of state for a good price. Still don't think her and her sister-in-law are talking and she never did tell her why she wouldn't sell it to her!
When my Dad's father died rather suddenly the cousins and one uncle who lived near him swooped in on the place and pretty much cleaned it out, all of Grandpa's tools, his car, guns and lots of keepsake things. My aunt called me in tears the day they were there that they were like a flock of buzzards and if there was anything I wanted I needed to get there. Loaded up the wife and two hours later we were there. My aunt had put some things back for us of the antique variety she thought we would like, otherwise what was left was of no sentimental or economic value. Always appreciated she did that for us, I was pretty close to my grandparents. One thing the buzzards couldn't figure out was what happened to the "turkey shoot" gun as they called it, an older double barrel 20 ga. with full choke on both barrels. Turns out my grandfather had given it to my Dad, plus some other things, on his last visit before he passed. Dad gave it to me and I still have it. Sometimes things do work out.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
