Not down with this style....took too long.
People in general were spending way too much for crap.

I like tractors.  
I think if I lived in the country, I would like to have a tractor just to ride around the property on to feel special.

My dad's hometownish--Hartford city.

Saturday auction in Hartford City with Z and S was a blast.
So much stuff to pick through...the crowd was amazing.

There was a bunch more behind the shed.

Didn't win this auction but bought some wheels off the person that did.
I did that a lot....little things you want get lumped in with expensive crap you don't want.....

The people that go to these are great.  It was over 90 today...8 hours in the scorching heat.
This guy was blue bandana man.
Almost bought a pulley from him.

Everyone called this guys "knuckles".  
He was the first to bid and also to bow out but ended up with a lot of crap.
Bought a point checker off him.
He is sitting on a seat I bought earlier....he carried it around for at least an hour using it after.

I am glad these went cheap.  
We stuck around late for this stuff and it was worth it.

It was thrown in with some other crap I got......

On the way home...we didn't have any tie-downs so tape will work, right?
We needed a little more....
