Colt Case Ingersoll Garden Tractors

We’ve got a full day today in and around the shop so let’s get going! Let’s start by getting the 1941 M out of its winter slumber and ready to go to work.

Great job Matt! I’ve followed your journey on this, you put a lot of work in. Glad you got it running great again!

Good luck Harry! I hope you bring it home and it’s nicer that you think! As stated I don’t think you can go wrong for $50 bucks or less.

These are called Peredovic sunflowers. I got them at the local COOP. I told them I wanted a variety for game birds. Not sure how tall these will get.

What do you know, they started to pop out of the ground! A little spotty at the moment and I may have to thin some places out, but the sunflowers are a growing

Well we are getting a very rare treat down here this evening. I’m not sure how many of you guys up north get to see the northern lights but it’s a first for us. Quite beautiful. My :wife: took some photos I thought I’d share. IMG_4078.jpeg IMG_4077.jpeg IMG_4072.jpeg IMG_4075.jpeg IMG_4067.jpeg
