We're Full Of #%*&!!

You all knew that before, but now we have something to spread it with! As it seems to be the case this summer, the items in our farm collection have come in pairs. We just recently aquired two antique manure spreaders.

The first one was pretty much just the frame.


Then we found the second one, which is complete.


It would probably be functional, and leave it to Dave, that's just what he plans on doing. He will eventually put a motor in it (most likely one of those antique hit and miss engines) and drive it around the property. It could also run the chains so we could give demonstrations on how it functions. I'm just glad there's no cows or horses around here to produce any manure!

This project will have to take a back seat to all the other projects we have going on though. Now that Hercules is running again, there are trees to cut down, stumps to be pulled up, and the motorcycle trials course is ready to be built. The wood chipper is attached to the New Holland tractor and ready to chew up all the fallen branches. Plus the Bayliner 'Full Circle' is waiting to be fixed. More on that in the next post. For now it looks like our time is spread way too thin!
