Sorry fellas. just reading how another was struggling and how much support I felt when reading his responses just broke me down. I cant thank you all for the support and prayers. I am a true believer of God only gives what you can handle. Just sometimes I am weary and cant see the purpose. One asked how I got into tractors. It started as soon as I could make it to the 3 sided tractor shed on my grandpas dairy. There was a 47 j.d. A with a mounted corn picker in the building. The clutch had went out of the tractor. Not an easy fix for a 60 yr old farmer milking 80 cows and farming 150 plus acre. There where alot of government interference at the time that made farmers struggle. My dad and brothers had to work out to keep bills paid working on the farm with every free moment. Grandpa always told neighbors I put more hours on that tractor while it was sitting in the shed than he did in its time in the real fields. Said if adults lost track of me during the day step out side and listen. You would here me making that wonderful 2 cylinder sound. As an adult I married late at 37. Wife got me and a 41 allis wc,44 farmall H with a duall loader and a 50 j.d.B. I have sold the allis and j.d. to pay medical for the wife. She always felt guilty. I always responded I would do it a million times to keep her with me. Noyw I am trying to find a more user friendly tractor for plowing snow. with the shoulder It is hard to get on the H and stearing with that old loader hanging off the front makes me ache. Now you all no me better, even if you didnt want to. This will be my last post for awhile I am getting busy getting house ready for a nap. Last minute appt. But wanted to say thanks for the emotional boost. Best to all. Hope to post follow ups. Bless you.

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: How to Remove a Broken Bolt - by Staff. Another neat discussion from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. The discussion started out with the following post: "I have an aluminum steering gear housing with a bolt broken off in it. The bolt is about a 3/8" x 1 1/2" bolt. I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
