 Topic: Got in a little mowing on Saturday
Posted: 01 Aug 2017 at 11:16am |
Was able to get in a little seat time on Saturday. Beautiful day. Hadn't mowed in about three weeks so the CA and Woods L-306 got a little work out. Not bad for a 65 year old tractor.

I don't feel so bad about not being able to get my pictures right side up now.

This is the site of the family farmstead. House used to sit here but has been torn down. Only remaining building is the old corn crib.

Is anybody else besides Dave see the pictures at a 90 degree angle? When I look at it, it appears upright/fine to me.

Love mowing with mine till I hit a root sticking up yesterday with the end if the deck and bent the hell out of my brackets on one side. Guess she's getting rebuilt now.

Pictures look good to me. I see you still have the original gas cap on the old girl. Tim

Pictures are upright for me and they look good. That is some beautiful land and a NICE spot for a home site. Thanks for sharing.

Photos taken with Apple products have a marker that Apple displays understand how to always show them top up ad bottom down. PCs generally don't notice the orientation flag and show the pictures turned according to the original camera orientation.

Guys, thanks for all the kind words. My wife and I thought about building a home on the place, but it never materialized. It's where I go to hang out, play with my tractors, and reminisce about my family that's now gone.
