First picture is the farm in 1973:
The single-wide trailer is Mom and Dad's house, the stick-built still had Grandma and Great Grandma living in it at the time (we moved to that house in about '86 with a remodel and new addition). Next to the grain bins you can see Dad's 42 Farmall H that he sold to a relative around '74 and I bought back a couple years ago.
This picture is around 2001, Mom and Dad bought a new double-wide to get out of the old stick built in need of major renovations in the older basement and a new roof as well (renovations would have cost more than the new house).

When he had the quonset built (40x80) he wondered why it was so darn big when all he had was an A Gleaner combine and a '51 Ford truck to put in it along with an 806 International and a D15 Allis Chalmers.

But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
