Well fella, the cold weather is coming soon and last week I changed my propane supplier to a major nation wide company: Ferrell gas comp. I got a 1000 gallon tank and they hooked it all up and the guys were friendly too...image that. My other supplyer of propane was a local mom-pop shop that I didnt care too much for and they wouldnt start the prebuy for the winter season. I had a long conversation with some yahoo there. I told him if they didnt start the prebuy before 8-31 then I was going to dump em. Get this. The guy told me that his boss was trying to time the market for the prebuy and get the best price and that they wouldnt start the prebuy until after August (after all their competition stopped the prebuy) I told the guy that his boss was a moron for thinking he could time the market and that I would no longer be a customer. So last Saturday I went up to the local propane supplier and said hey come get your tank, the guy says okay and you will forfeit the 90 gallons or so of the propane in the tank...oh well at least they are out of my hair. As far as firewood goes, I got about 6-7 facecords ready but that is more than enough. ANy of you guys heat with wood and live in Mich. I live near FLint. I will sell it to you cheap, say $25/truck load. Oak, hickory, maple, elm.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
