Goodby to an old friend

Well, the engine finally starting getting tired and it was time to go. Sort of like having your dog put to sleep (well, in some strange way anyway). I just didn't want it to be scrapped though, because with some TLC, it could be revived and put back to work. I'm just not mechanical enough to do that sort of thing though :-(

So I went onto the web to Free Cycle.Org. If you've never heard of it, it's for people that have something that they don't have a use for anymore and just want to give it to a good home. We have a local chapter of it and we've used it often. As for the tractor, we definitely found a great home for it. A small local farmer, that can work on it, is giving it a new life. His kids are also enjoying riding in the trailer behind it around the yard.
