@Harry thats a neat scooter. I’m trying to figure out what those fenders came off of!
@RoamingGnome After a 10 hour drive I don’t think I would be up for 2 hours of work! Is that your normal drive from you current house up to your property?
Looks like you found a good show thanks for the pictures, I hope you can get some from tomorrows show!

@JSinMO Sorry, I'm crazy but not that crazy - it's 300 miles one way - 6 hrs to get there, 5 hrs for the drive home - the big wildcard is driving through Toronto traffic - it seems to always be under construction, and it's never fun.

Happy Labor Day again. A 5:30 wakeup and no granola. Fresh homemade yogurt and
Applesauce made yesterday. Starting the day without granola was enough to loose sleep over.
Now that problem is solved

@Eugen That big pot is apples for sauce. M likesa brand of granola that is hard to find sometimes. I use 2 cups large flake oates, 1-1/2 cups of mixed nuts or seeds, whatever is on hand, sunflower, pumpkin, walnuts, cashews,..... flavor with 1/8cup brown sugar, 1/ tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, 1/8 tsp cloves. Mix dry ingredients. Add to the mix 1/8 cup honey, 1/8 honey and 1/2 tsp vanilla. Bake on cookie sheet 30 minutes at 325. Stir every 10 minutes.
Some recipes call for a 1/4 cup oil but I leave it out.

Nice! I am happy with daily boiled steel cut oats but
insists on throwing in it all sorts of hard to identify seeds and fruit. She days I need it and I comply. She asks almost every day if I like it, my reply is always "it's very good!" I really like oatmeal.

Going tomorrow to the Pontiac IL Thresherman's Reunion, this year the J I Case Heritage Expo is being held there. Planning to meet up with a cousin of my 87 year old mother and one of his cousins that I have never met but is an avid J I Case collector from Minnesota with over 35 tractors.
Will try to post a couple of pictures for any that are interested in the older AG tractors.

My mom and I spent two or three nights at the Pontiac hospital a little over 54 years ago.
Note that I'll turn 55 this spring.

Haha Bob, you young whipper snapper!
I don't know why, but I always seem to have the distinct thought that it'll go pretty fast, before starting to work on electrical. Yet, hours later I'm still fiddling with wires, connectors, crimper, heat shrink tubing, and all that paraphernalia. However, the rebuilt K321 is bolted in, all new wires, and it's alive.

This as just a sanity test. Still needs the exhaust done and various little things to be put back on.
