    I hope y'all can get the tractor, but I totally understand about the debt thing. You guys know better than any of us what makes sense for you.

    You're right, Beth; and new tractors are like buying a home. This one is a one owner 1998 with 1224 hours on it. The guy told me he knows the man who owned it, and was only one ever drove it, except him now. Said the old man kept inside his building and there's not a scratch or dent on it. He said it needs nothing, and runs out perfect, has the best bush hog he ever used. He said he cut some around his house with it, and he was amazed how great it cuts. The price is nothing like a new one either.

    I do hope it is to your liking Jake.
    I’m sure Marie is already dreaming about creating her own parking space when Sunday-to-go-to-meetin’ time comes up at the church house.
    Unless of course one of the other ladies is driving one of those $100K tractors to church then she might have to make an allowance for that.
