Northbound on I-80/35 along the west edge of Des Moines, in uniform on my way to work at Camp Dodge. Had already decided the 1st plane wasn't likely an accident and that the future would be interesting when word came of the 2nd plane. Deployed twice, trained and sent many others that went to harder places and did harder things more than twice, some as many as 5 times. Carrying a few faces and names that didn't come back. Glad it was just a few, wish it were none. All along it felt right in response to 9/11 and the thought that many hardships in taking the fight to far away places was preferable to changing our way of life here. Hard to watch some of the things unfolding these days. Seems like yesterday to me, know there's a generation that's grown since, don't have the same perspective, and probably look at people like me the way I used to look at WWII, Korean, or Vietnam vets: with respect but not understanding the passion/intensity for something that happened that long ago. God Bless America and all who love her.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
