I'm still alive in Missouri Heaven

Post by Mohillbilly »

Hi guys. It's been a long time since I posted anything. Its been a busy year. I had three stints put in my heart last spring, then broke my foot while turkey hunting last October. All healed and healthy now. Accumulated an early 60's Wheelhorse garden tractor and last week, we got a 1955 Massey-Harris 44 Special tractor. I have lucked out on both these purchases. I'm making headway on the barns, and the wife has 23 hens and 2 roosters doing their jobs well (avg 15 eggs/day). The tractor will go a long way to helping clear the locust trees and return it to good pasture land. Wow! I can't believe we've grown to over 3500 members. Just shows you what a quality site Kieth has produced and maintained so well. My '70 Custom (Fred) is still earning his keep and more. It just doesn't break much. I did break the speedo cable and e'brake cable, but hope to get those replaced this spring. I'll post some pics of the truck, tractors, and barns soon, and try to stay in touch better. Congrats big time on the ongoing publicity and recognition in Classic Trucks Magazine, Kieth. Keep on Rockin'.

Yep, Ezernut9mm, 126 turnoff is just south of Lamar, then east thru Lockwood and 160, then north on 39. I'm just 1 mile from the Greenfield Access Area on CC highway. The water is so high now that all the ramp and a good part of the parking lot is under water.
