Sorry for your misfortune. Hope you get well quick. Youre words of the elderly and infirm are thoughts of Charity that sorry to say have virtually disappeared from our fast paced life. Chasing the Buck[$] I feel is entirely[99%] the blame for our modern day disdain for some less fortunate than we.Concern for others I am of the opinion largely started to dissappear in the lifetime of my Generation. My childrens Generation furthered this disregared and my grand children I am sure will deepen the thoughtless self positioning of [get out of my way-I was here first} It is saddening to see this happening but it is a sign of the time so I simply step aside and ignore the rudeness most,[not all certainly], people show to thier fellow person and when I am the reciever of a polite persons offer to me the old time feeling of "maybe it is not so bad after all " returns and I usually back slide and feel good about the situation I am in. Enough of that, Now, Yestrday I went to the EDGETA Tractor show at the "Saquaro Ranch Park" in Glendale Ariz. for awhile. Show seemed much smaller than usual,probably because of the none show of most of the "Mile High Engine club" from Prescott Ariz. Still in all it was a pretty good show with a bueatiful AC WD45 that was worth the trip to see for me.Show stopper I think was a Big Oliver Super 99 with Detroit power on the Sled .Made a lot of noise. No wonder operators of those Machines are hard of hearing. Then an International 660 D pulled and pulled the same distance and it was so quiet you had no problem hearing the person who was talking to you.So there you go. Well enough from Arizona for now. Get well quick. John
