Ya'll keep me sane here. I recently took a 300 mile round trip through the Mississippi countryside and I noticed all I looked for were old Farmall's. Even though I'm on the downside of a 100 restoration and have a B next in line, it seems all I see is old iron just waitin for my shop. I saw two cubs, an SA with a lift disc, something with a blue tarp over it that I could tell was a Farmall, a 60's era gasser with a front end loader, what looked like a 706-sized one with LP, and a steel wheeled yard ornament that looked to be a 12.
I swear, I can't enjoy a nice drive without looking at those sheds at the back of the houses. Anyone affected with this same malady?

Whew! I'm not alone with my "illness." About a week ago, Susie and I took a drive west out toward Galena, IL. That's about a hundred miles away. We went through a little town before Galena that had a letter-series Farmall for sale along the side of the road. Because of the traffic behind me and some time constraints, I couldn't stop. Heck, I was pushed through town before I could even tell if it was an H, an M or what. Here's the illness part. A couple of days ago, I took a darn similar trip in that same direction by myself, this time to Savannah, IL. And wouldn't you know it? My route back home had me on that SAME highway, going through that SAME little town, where the red was. This time I stopped and took a look at the...Super MTA, it was. There was also an M. That's all I needed, to gaze at them and take in the details, knowing full well that the last thing I need right now is to buy another tractor. Oh, but it's great to look.

My problem is that each year I get older, the harder it is for me to keep the truck between the lines while I am gazing off into the distance trying to get a peek at an old Farmall. I used to be able to drive straight and steady with my eyes closed. Now I find myself swerving all over the place (and I'm only 35!).
