Your second tractor with the plow is what I want mine to look like. I want to put ag tires on it for traction in the dirt. Right now it is nothing to look at and shakes like crazy because of the home made rag joints that have the driveshaft out of alignment. I am looking for a creeper for my 1000 along with other parts so I have one I can work with.

What brand tires did you use and where did you get them?

I do live in a beautiful area and the weather is perfect. It is very expensive. There are some very good things about living here. If you can buy a house it will appreciate faster than about anywhere in the country.

I grew up in Illinois and I don't miss snow. We were up in Lake Tahoe the beginning of December and it snowed while we were there. That's the first time I saw snow on the ground in 5 years. There is no humidity and no mosquitoes in the summer here. I won't rain from the end of April until November. Normally we get heavy rain in the winter but not this year. It is dry and warm. Two weeks ago it was in the 80°s and this week it is the 60°s and people are complaining about the weather. The reservoirs are empty and we are going to pay for it next summer. I moved to a forested area in the mountains and I am very worried about wild fires this year.

I'll snap some pictures of my latest acquisitions this weekend. I am looking forward to taking some pictures of Cub Cadets under redwood trees in my backyard.
