Photos of my home and land

A 42 yo tractor fanatic like me could not ask for a nicer more suitable home than the one I have been lucky enough to acquire. Here are some photos of the views, the fields, and the house /barn. The farm at one time mainly grew potatos and had livestock and a milking house. Current crops are cow corn, pumpkins, squash, and haying. Basically to keep the fields working as this is not main income. It is about 100 acres here.

I even have some really old photos from the 1850's and of course some current I took myself. Also a photo of some of my favorite Wheel Horses. I have somehow managed to collect a dozen or so of those. =)
I love this lady and her dog. I don't know who was but I would like to know her life story.


A current photo of the house and barn from the back yard.

Side view of Barn. I use the upper tie up as a large workshop now. The main barn stores a lot of equipment and the lower tie up is full of Wheel Horse stuff!

House, like the barn the house is post and beam. I need to take some inside pictures of the main barn. The beams are incredible and the barn is solid for about 170 years old.

Views of the interval


The 1433V next to the diminutive 1968 Lawn Ranger. Don't let the Ranger fool you she is rugged! Cast iron Uni-drive transaxle -)

Some of my favorite Wheel Horse Garden tractors

Set of 4 outbuildings. There is another large outbuilding on the left hand side of the house.

Nice view of the creek in the spring


Well hope you enjoyed the photos, I plan on posting more of the barn and my workshop after Turkey day is done!

Thanks for reading.

Oh and BTW - one of the reasons I love this so much is I lived in a 1971 10 x 48 mobile home for the almost 11 years saving up for this. Not putting mobile homes down, it just isn't ideal for a guy who collects tractors. LOL

Totally cool old photos. I love places with history. They are truely special. Looks like you have planned it out! Good for you.

Very nice place and now you have breathing room.

Thanks for sharing, very nice place. Someday when the snow is deep, you can go to the courthouse and trace back the ownership of your land, assuming you don't know already.

Great pictures, nothing quite like owning your own home and land.

Beautiful pictures, tractors and countryside. Thanks for sharing!!

Nice place! That great to see the old buildings are still serviceable. Got to love post and beam. Great pics also.

...and a skidder too!

I love seeing old barns and houses put to right and kept up!

Keep it going!

That's just outstanding! I'm a complete old-house/old-barn junkie, thanks for the fix! Looking forward to more when you have the time.
