TRACTOR IS FINALLY FINISHED

The tractor is done now that summer is about over. Been spending the free time I've had putting it back together and painting it up.Was easy to work on this, as it was all American steel and no metric nuts and bolts.Everything fit as it should. The frame was solid. Maybe I should look for another one for next year to use around the house pulling a drag through the back trails. I hope it runs like a John Deere should.

Another load of logs

  Yesterday hit the jackpot. Another log delivery to the house. Now my winter work will be there for me. Wouldn't be nice for a winter like last year.

MORE LOGS

Just when I thought I was caught Up with the firewood another load of logs gets delivered. These will have to wait until the winter though as there is no more stacking room. Actually too many things to do this summer. Started back fishing and I find it very relaxing. I have sat on the lake during winter and it gets cold. So will enjoy some time by the water and get to this later. Enjoy whats left of summer.

We had a nice rain over the past few days. Sort of an off and on type. A real downpour that didn't do any good but wash the soil away. In the following picture you'll see how beneficial  rain water is over watering from the house. Might have to harvest rain water from the shed. Some tasty produce if I say so myself.

Cherry tomatoes

Had a good rain last night and the plants have perked up. Went out this morning and picked a few bite size tomatoes. They are really starting to come in now. Only have three plants of this variety.

Watermelons have started to come to harvest. Picked this 20 pounder before the animals had their taste. Have a few more out there, hoping they grow just a bit bigger.Not sure what type it is. Seeds were sent to me from Texas from a member of the forum.
