Space Shuttle

Today, the space shuttle Atlantis was launched on its last scheduled voyage into space carrying enough supplies for a year to the International Space Station. After watching thirty years of shuttle launches, this one seemed as special as the very first one back on April 12, 1981. The shuttle program has endured much, including the loss of two shuttles, one in launching process and the other upon re-entering the earth's atmosphere. For myself, this sets the basis for an in-depth study and research topic and perhaps future posts will include knowledge gained on this subject.

Snow covered tractors

Could there be anything more peaceful in appearance than a snow covered Farmall tractor? The picture shows one of our Farmall B series which is used for dragging manure and distributing fertilizer from a small mounted hopper.

Snow is rare in our neck of the woods, so we take a few photos to help document the seasons as they pass. Every ten to twelve years a snow such as this will come along and bring an enchanting view of the farm and it's various equipment. We must enjoy it right away though, for it does not stay long, two or three days pass and only trace amounts will be left in a shady spot.

Farmall

1952 Farmall Super A with dozer/grader blade attatched, looking to stir some dirt. Farmall tractors are my favorite, "crops are green, tractors are red!".
