May Update

Our new family member- 30 HP model 790 John Deere with front end loader, tiller and rear scraper. We finally found the one we wanted for a reasonable price after looking for 7 years. And yes, its a real tractor, no spark plugs in this baby. Just pure diesel power. Funny how 2 tractors ended up in our families blogs on the same week. They are much nicer to look at than motorcycles, eh?


Baby foxes near our acreage. 4 pups in total.







A few winter pics from around our place.

Brad was so cool with his tractor... for 2 days until you posted.

What can I say? Us Canadians are used to having bigger things all around. Now he will go out and buy a 40HP to be the biggest.

Can I borrow it sometime?

By the way, mine might be smaller, but at least it doesn't have a ball of fur in the seat.

You are more than welcome to borrow it any time. However, since I do not have a treialer to haul it, you will have to drive it back. I calculate it will take approx. 15 days of driving at 10 hours a day. Including stops for meals, fuel, waste depositing, and engine services, it will be closer to 18 days. Hope its worth it.
