Mine involves working.  We bought 50 acres last year, and are now trying to begin the process of building.  So that means I need a 1400 foot driveway cut into teh ground, a gravel base, and a dozer to level the site where my hopefully future shop will be. Then cut down a hill where hopefully one day a house will sit.   My tractor (1974 Ford Super Utility diesel) sprung a radiator leak AND a power steering leak.  So I went and bought this Wednesday.  Happy Father's Day to me  :lol:
  Happy Father's Day to all the fathers (and dads) out there!

Usually they have a local car show in our area, this day every year. But I think CV has put a squash on people having any fun. I know it's lifting, but is still scarring our area. But I hope people got out to spend time with their families, and maybe even bring a T/A out for enjoyment.  :)

Happy Father's day all and congratulations Mike.  That's a nice tractor.  They sure are handy.  Especially in the junkyard.

I grew up farming with an M Farmall (no 3 point hitch) and when my Dad retired he bought a compact utility tractor with a loader.  One extreme to the other.
I want to be like Paul Kenny when I grow up
