Scraps

We appreciate all the veterans who have touched our lives: all of the friends, family and members of our community who have served.

These are the worst kinds of tire blowouts. The sidewall has a 3-inch hole in it. No fixing that, the tire has to be replaced!

This blowout happened on the van trailer dolly so the fix is pretty urgent.

We’re so blessed to have our Uncle James with us to help troubleshoot problems with everything from replacing the wiring on a tractor to replacing the handle on a shovel.

James has great stories: picking cotton by hand, working cattle in the days before squeeze chutes, manning a pusher on the ICW, learning what “jaywalking” was in Hawaii as a young Navy seaman, and hunting at night in the backwoods around Pledger.

He’s still raking hay at the farm and wants everyone to quit monkeying around; we all say, “Yes sir!”.
