I’m quitting for the day. Maybe finish it tomorrow.

There is just a universal wholesome appeal to those old red narrow front Farmall tractors.

I can't tell is that an M or an H?

Yes there is. There we’re always old Farmalls around on the farm when I was growing up. I fell for them back then I guess. Even though they are completely outdated today they are still quite capable machines and I really enjoy working with them.

The tractor in the picture is a 1953 Super H. Basically a H with a little more HP.

Happy puppy on the highway. He was sleeping with the head out the rear window just moments before.

You're really making good use of the loader.

Thanks. The 648 has really come in handy around the shop. I try to give all the tractors work. It’s better to run them than let them sit. With 6 of them sometimes I have to find thing for them to do! Our Cub is the only one idle at the moment and I may be putting the belly mower on it at some point.

Is there a way to add video to the site straight from my phone? I don’t have accounts with YouTube or anything. This is a social as my media gets!

As far as I can tell you can't do video straight to the CCIGT site. You can use pretty much any video site you care to, but you have to upload your video over there and post a link to it over here.

Sorry I missed your question somehow. Like Bob said already, this forum software, much like other ones, isn't equipped with that capability, plus we would run out of space very quickly.

Bob uses youtube for that, while I prefer vimeo.com which I found very easy to do, but yes, an account on that site is needed too. I have installed the vimeo app on my phone and I just upload any video that I want to share to vimeo. Then I use the link to post it here. Sometimes a short video says a lot more than many pictures and words.

Happy to get a little seat time digging the two soil drainage test for the septic system design. As usual I got dependable help!

Looks like that machine is working pretty good. Your lucky to have such a dedicated helper, good help is hard to find!

I notice the yellow in the trees Eugen, fall is coming. Nice heavy soil, good for garden not for septic.

50°f here this morning, the lake was steaming After the heat and humidity, I'm liking it.

Also got some seat time last night, notice the nice cut from the 448.

Cooled off here too Tim. Sure feels nice after the heat and humidity we had. The maple tree has started to turn, you're right. Not sure I'm ready for that yet. Lots of green tomatoes and only a couple red. We were late to plant them this year.

Your lawn looks great @Timj ! The 448 does a great job!

I see the trees are stating to drop in my area, but I was thinking that it was because of the dry spell we had. It was 54 degrees this morning when I got up but it's suppose to get up to the mid seventies today.

These guys have been penned up in the shop for a month. It’s finally moving day. Big new world for them to explore.
Now to clean up the shop.
