   Yes, JB I loved that tractor, Started my love for the Farmalls.
   Great Pics. Thanks for sharing. Nothing like being on a farm. The only thing better is being on a boat😊😊.

   Bet you had fun on that Trev, love the old Farmalls. Couldn't afford one of the big ones (sought after by collectors here, and not many left which aren't in collections) so had to settle for the A. Drove a big Inter when I worked on a cotton farm in Australia ( model 1066,- I think,-similar to pic) rear wheels were nearly 6ft tall,- a real beast. Also a twin row Inter picker. Friends parents had a farm in NZ as well, heaps of fun at haymaking time etc, driving tractors around.

   Kinda Like the song by the Rolling Stones, with the Lyrics.
   "You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you can get what you need"
   😮😮😂🤣😂
   Ron is right we have beat this to death.

   I haven't learned much in my dotage, but have developed a system to divide "wants" from "needs".
   When I see something I really, really "want", I tell myself I can have it in three days. After two days I revisit the item and if it's gone I didn't need it. If it's still available and now I only "really" want it, some of the pressure is off, and if I wait one more day and still "want" it, the item becomes a "need". Then I rationalize that since I can't take the $$ with me when I go, I may as well do my civic duty and spread it around while I'm here.

   Hi Ron,
   Is this a full-sized Vessel?
   The pic on the water looks to be a model?
   She Looks Great!
   Any more background on her?

   I think this subject has gone on long enough.
   
   Now some news from Tofino where Marcel is putting in new fuel tanks. Beamsville will have a longer range now.

    Ron, you are right,
    I should ban myself from ebay. I am not a gambler, too cheap, but ebay?!
    The worse thing for me is to have a hard day, come home to a little libation, and go on ebay to reward myself😂😂😂😮😮😮
    I am tracking some steam plants from China, but that is a long way down the road, (I hope)
    I have to do one Steamy before I go to Davey Jones Locker😍🤑😍😍
    I know i am hopeless. Still waiting for the Golden Years.
