<font color=blue> why doesn't someone step up and organize an event, supply the tractors and get it over with? </font color=blue>
Mossman...you may recall that I offered to provide the spot to conduct just such a shindig in the "Best Mountain Tractor" thread, but I'm not signing on to supply the tractors /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif
I don't think anyone took the idea seriously. Too bad....we might have got a lot of work done....let's see....road improvement/maintenance, make two ponds in a stream, one lake with significant dam requiring tons of dirt moving (truck and tractor comparisons) 3 acres to be cleared and put into vineyards, seven acres of pastures and some miscellaneous auger work for posts and fencing...WHarv and others could hold welding forums while automating and improving the three gates....plus we'll need fire pits, spits and such to roast pigs and goats....wells for water to make ice for all the cold drinks....all in all, that ought to be enough to provide fodder for plenty of contests... /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif/w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif
Addendum:....theoretically all would be welcome, but from the tone of this thread, and the obviously diverse cast of TBN characters, Harv and the Moderators would have to provide tight security screening to register the numerous guns, swords and knives.... and Charlie will have to head up an effort to have all sign waivers and promise to be nice!
