Oh Lanse!
Well, I'm glad no serious damage came to you or yours. Things can be replaced, people can not. I guess being down here in N FL, we didn't really know how bad y'all got hit up there. We've had some terrible ones down here though too. Thankfully though it's been awhile for us.
What have we been up too? Well, 'what haven't I gotten myself into' is easier to answer, I think! We have been expanding the farm left and right and dealing with and learning all kinds of things. We kinda "fell into" pig farming, believe it or not, we're raising catfish, ducks, guineas, sheep, layer chickens and we're on our 4th or 5th batch of broilers that we process and sell. Hubby built a clucker plucker and we have two sows that should farrow anytime now. We'll be selling pasture raised pork soon also. We're also doing rabbits, though whoever coined the phrase "breeds like rabbits" never actually TRIED to breed the lil buggers.
Kids changed schools and we're thinking of moving after the first of the year to get a better property and more secure house with a REAL barn.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
