It's a great forum. I will have to get back there. It is a wealth of information. Lifestyles have certainly changed over time and so have men and women. Why can't everyone be like grandma and grandpa used to be? I used to frequent homesteading today. It’s a great forum. I will have to get back there. It is a wealth of information.

I didn't know guys like you still existed. Ha! Its a shame they turned farm into prison. Emminent domain stinks. Here they are taking all the farmground for house additions. Buncha ugly cracker boxes ruining the landscape. I will continue to follow your story. I just found this on accident as a link off of homesteadingtoday.com .what a great thing to read about!

My focus, as crazy as it might seem, is to educate individuals not from a farm on how food gets to their plate. Take a look and let me know what you think. Grew up in Kansas,...now in St. Louis.

Kentucky is an IH state. Lots of IH machinery rolled out of the Louisville KY factory. The plant closed in the early 80's I believe. It's great that you can still visit the farm. Is it still in the family? Linda,

Nothing better than lots of practice. The biggest obstacle I had to overcome was realizing that most times slow is better. Just figure out what works best for you and let the tractor do all the work.

I grew up on a farm in Iowa and am proud to say we had IH machinery. We go "home" every summer to visit and I can still drive a tractor with the best of them. Best to you and your family!

I am getting a 2615 delivered tomorrow. I am dealing with some terrace repair work, directing water, etc. Do you know of a good book or instructional text dealing with these tractor use issues?
