It's funny how these winter projects go. It seems that all those projects that had been scheduled have been moved to the back burner. Well,they just felloff the stove! The neighbor just brought his little John Deere 1020 down with a bad water pump so that is apart in the shop and then there is the pickup truck... it just lost 5th gear. It looks like a new truck is in the near future. The poor 'ol truck hit the 12 year mark with 200,000 miles and just needs too many things  (like rust repair)..... yep, the newest winter project  is to find a new truck  <!-- s:cry: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt=":cry:" title="Crying or Very sad" /><!-- s:cry: -->
