Tonight I took the Baker clan out to Golden Corral for all you can eat shrimp and steak. We had a big day here, one I felt might never come. I made the last land payment, so now this shack and all the ground is paid for. Mom And Dad, as well as my Big Brother are all gone. I felt almost sad that there is no one left that was there to see me start with nothing to get here today. None of the old family to "high five". I do have my wife and children, but sure miss my folks tonight. They helped me when everyone else thought I was crazy. They didn't have much money, but always were willing to jump into the seat of a tractor or combine. Always came running if the cows were in the road. Mom sometimes would come over and clean up the house or leave a hot meal for me when I got behind. Even in his seventies Dad could outlast me going without sleep. My Brother never was able to help much here on this farm, but always called and asked about stuff and acted interested about his kid brother. Funny how after so many years working hard that now that I am here I just don't know who to tell that I lived though it. Thought I would post it cause I know on this site many guys can understand how the struggle feels. Al

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
