I DON'T GET ALONG WELL WITH GAS MACHINES-- NEVER HAVE...
I REMEMBER...... A TIME I WAS REALLY IN A LIFE THREATENING SITUATION WAS THE TIME I DECIDED TO RIDE MY VESPA SCOOTER FROM BOSTON TO CORNWALL NY... WHERE MY PARENTS LIVED...
I DID NOT -- AND STILL DO NOT KNOW WHY IT STALLED IN SOME DESERTED FORESTED SECTION OF RT 202 OR WHY IT STARTED AFTER 4 HOURS OF ROPE PULLING ( NO ELECTRIC START)_ BUT I LEARNED --- DON'T GET IN A SPOT WHERE YOU HAVE NO OUT.
WELL TODAY WITH 23.8 INCES OF SNOW, THE TRACTOR WAS APPROACHING EMPTY AND THE FUEL WAS DOWN BY THE CHICKENS--- IF I GOT DOWN THERE AND RAN OUT OF GAS ( DIESEL) THER E NO WAY I COULD WALK BACK UP THE HILL TO A WARM HOUSE... SO I HAD TO WAIT.... ALLISON BAILED ME OU T AND WENT WITH ME TO USE THE HAND PUMP TO FILL THE TANK.
SO THEN I PLOWED THE WHOLE PLACE AND EVEN HAD TO TURN THE HEAT DOWN IN THE CAB !!!!! LUXURY !!!
DAUGHTER JANINIE--( ON THE ROLLERBLADES IN THE CALENDAR) JUST PUT FORTH a CONCEPPT OF MAKING MORE TRAINING AVAILABLE BY.. MOVING THE T TENT CAMERA TO THE ARENA WHERE THERE IS AT LEAST PART TIME ACTION AND THEN HAVE MEGAN AND MARIA MAKE SHORT VIDEOS TO UTUBE-- OR SOME SUCH..
SHE HAS A PLAN IN HER HEAD--- AND IT DOES SOUND INTERESTING...
GOING TO WORK ON THAT... WHILE I DEAL WITH THE PUPPIES, PRAY FOR SOME VOLUNTEERS TO SHOW.... AND WATCH EVERYONE DEAL WITH THE SNOW...
