John Deere Paint is Not Cheap!

John Deere Paint is Not Cheap! The Doodlebug gets painted!

Homemade Tractor

Today’s picture shows the parts have been painted John Deere Green. (:>) In a few days, I will sand the paint and buff it out so it shines pretty good. You can see for the first time the t-handle and the steering wheel for my grandson. They both come off when it is hooked up to the front unit and it will ARTICULATE!!!! So I will have two rigs that articulate (:>)

After a few days, I will also paint the yellow stripes on the side of the hood.
The headlights are not bolted in yet in this picture.

Healthy Eating

Deb and I are doing good this spring eating healthy considering this was the coldest winter on record. Not once this winter did we get up and have a depressing day because of the long cold winter. We just know each day is a gift from God and we need to enjoy it. Every day this winter we got up and hopped on the treadmill.  Those walks really make our day start out well. Laying around til noon is bad news.

Duluth Freighters, Stuck in Ice

Shipping new, 6 ships should be at the Locks by now as they follow two ice breakers upbound towards Duluth. It will be interesting to see if they take the Southern Route and break a completely new track. The boatnerds been watching every day.

Have a great Sat!
