I always wanted 40 acres and a barn. We had 37 acres once, no barn, but there was a rough little hunting cabin there that I had fun fixing up and pretending I was a carpenter. I had a little sink that I could pump water up into. I built a kitchen counter with storage and a bed platform out of logs and plywood. If you look way back in Two at Twin Lake, you will probably find some posts about the little cabin. But since we didn't have the 37 acres or a barn the last few years, I got to wanting a tractor. Of all things.
A year ago, Himself got tired of my 'wanting' and pining and said "Get on line, research it, figure it out! Gitterdone!" So I did. I researched and compared. I found what I wanted and LJ approved. We went and looked and quoted three or so and bought us a dandy little fully-loaded sub-compact Massey Ferguson.

LJ can run this baby.
It has come in handy this year. With all the rain we had and the road boys not knowing how to grade a road, we had a ton of rock washed down into our yard.
I can drive it too but it sure isn't as easy as I thought it would be.
I've got to get back on this horse and ride it again!

The little tractor has made life easier doing chores with it I never imagined. I have hauled a lot of gravel and dirt with it. I just hope Nancy will get with it and start using it.
