Come on Turbys......Perk up Man..........after all........your town says that you've got "Balls".

If it wasn't for coming inside for breaks due to my age, I'd probably never post on TBN............right now I'm hot and sweaty , but heading back outside with the heat going to 96 deg F today.:thumbsdown:

On a side note. my son attended at that time the new middle school. It was named Mill Creek. A name derived from Balls Creek and Murray's Mill. The other option I guess would have been Murray's Balls Middle School.

I just came in from moving round bales into the barn for my brother in law. I got 14 in the barn and 40 more to go. Got to go to the doctor this afternoon to get all my pills and insulin refills ordered. I think most of us "old users" get to the doctor more often now than in the past. I have so many pills to take twice a day that I have to have a 7 day pill box to keep up with all of them.

Had to move a couple mattresses, and box springs into the garage yesterday..sure wish I could had had my tractor and fel in there

Soundguy, you sure have contributed a lot to this site. Thanks........and.......maybe you should buy one of those little SCUTs.

I tell ya.. I'm probably within a few years of getting back to a modern tractor. In 2000 ? I traded my 97 1920 nh and wish I had kept it.

Since I still have cows n horses, I still have to deal with round bales. I have been bandaiding my antiques for a while now, and whenever my current 1955 loader tractor finally bites the bullet, ill get something 30hpish with a loader to move rounds, and save the oldies for barn decorations

Not sure when that will be, but I'm getting a bit too tired to keep up with tires and bats and heavy stuff. Got a couple big tires with flats,and one big tractor needing a clutch.. Just putting I off till I get younger

Yes Crash, but 108 in Tucson is a lot easier to take than 98 in the Southeast with all the humidity. When I lived in Tucson the big thing was to keep you head covered so your brains wouldn't cook. We lived there for years with just a swamp box to cool the house and no a/c in the car.

that was pretty normal in the old days. grew up in Tombstone & we didn't even have fans.

More later go to keep you OF'S entertained, since its the only pleasure you get.
