Hello John and congratulations on your new grandchild!
Years ago I had an 8N, neat tractors. I always wanted to hook a trailer to my 56 F350 and load up the 850 for our local Pionerna days, haven`t made it yet.
Pion-Era - Saskatoon Western Development Museum
Nice to hear that there are a few 8N tractors hidden in shed`s, anyone have a story or two to share?
Now my deck is white but the ground is still bare, hopefully it stays that way for at least another month or two.

Dad used to have an 8N and they are a neat old tractor. If it keeps raining I might need one to get out of the yard.
Sweet Ride Reg.
Congrats on the grandchild John.
Have a good evening everyone.

Congratulations on the grandchild John
Going to spend some money on a truck tomorrow and hopefully it makes it home so that I can spend some more on it. If this thing isn't a money pit I'll be looking for a bobcat and dump trailer next spring. Going to take a few more days off and concentrate on getting some of my yard done, then it's either a fence or patio next. Retirement never ends does it.

Good luck with that truck tomorrow, whichone is it, do you have a link to the ad?
I`m semi retired from 37 years of Bobcat and trailer work, it`s been a great ride most of the time.

This is that 78 1 ton flat deck in Cochrane. Supposed to be low mileage and no serious rust. Seen little use since he bought it, looks like a pumpkin apparently

Went to the bank to ask for a $1000 so that I could keep my money and the loan manager pushed me to borrow 5k, how's that for scary. Told her to wait for the end of winter or the start of spring then I'll hit her up for a bobcat.

We didn't get any snow here in southern MB. As far as I'm concerned it can hold off for a while yet. I need to get a driveway to my workshop so I can get in there and work on the truck in spring when everything is wet.

It`s not just hump day here Grant, it`s more like Christmas.
John, from these morning deck pictures you can see our white junk.
Jeffrey, agreed that it could have held off for a while.
