First Serious Project - Clearing 1.5 Acres

[Jim57]

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( Good Mornin Jim,
I have read your post in amazement this morning! What a great service you are providing your neighbors in need. I also find this quite interesting that I should find your thread the day after I finished reading my churches monthly news letter. In that news letter, one thing that our minister listed, was to feed thy neighbor in need! You have put new meaning into those words! Thankyou for sharing and God Bless you!

Good Morning Scotty,

It is my Great Pleasure to follow Gods instructions and plans for me. I am glad to share with others in need. We hope to have 40 acres of area donated to use in this project. They have committed to this for this coming spring. I hope it does not fall through. I would love to be able to help people all over the United States. Seems to me that they are some people in the United States that get over looked. We have people starving in our wonderful country. In my humble opinion.... this should NOT be happening in our country. Without bringing in politics into my Project... I want to help people that otherwise would not get help.

We have had several donations from different companies. Even some from seed companies. We are in need of some seed starting flats for this spring if you know anyone that wants to donate some. Having these flats and seed starting peat we can get a head start on getting the plants producing. We can use all the help that is donated because of the expense of materials. We are looking for a larger tractor as well because the one we have will not be large enough to handle the 40 acres. The one we have... when it gets repaired, will only be used to do the 2.5 acres. I don't want to over work it as I was accused of by the tractor dealership I purchased it from. But that is another story. It is posted here at TBN.

Thank you for the vote of confidence. May God Bless you and yours.

Sincerely,
Jim Bonham

Nevertheless, they shut down another plant in our area and around another 1,000 people out of work.

Keep giving away food for free and some local farmers might join those unemployed.

That's not possible. Mostly apple farms around here. That is why it is so important to have someone growing food in our area. Many people in our area grow spring crops of corn and some tomatoes, but there isn't anyone I know of growing winter crops. Several people grow their own food if they have the land to do so. We work through churches to find the people that are in need of food. We also donate to the soup kitchens in our area. One thing about it... people will always need nourishment... you would be surprised how much food is needed in the United States for people in our country going hungry. I hope you never go hungry... but if you do... you know who to contact. May God Bless you and yours. May you never know the hunger pains that many have known in our Great Country.

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( If you remember I mentioned selling my Jeep to keep this project going. I have three pictures of it for you to see. It is a 2003 Wrangler with 10,700 miles on it... 99.9% of them road miles if not all. I want $18,500.00 or Best Offer. It is a 5 speed and has a Rubicon Stereo System in it. Believe it or not.. it rides very comfortable. I drove it to Fort Sill, Oklahoma twice and to Bonham, Texas once. This is where most of the miles that is on it was accumalated. Some of those roads have a lot to be desired in comfort but the Jeep made them okay to ride on. I was impressed to say the least when I found how good it rode compared to the rumble roads out in those areas.

Tractor's Ready for pickup.

I just got the following information from my attorney. This just isn't right but I will do what I have to do. Unfortunately I do not have the money to pick it up right now or on Monday. As you all know I was laid off myself. However... I do have a promising job prospect. I have went to the first interview and will go to the second interview on Monday. But, for now here is the info that was forwarded to me from my attorney from the dealership.


</font><font color="blue" class="small">( The tractor is ready. the labor charge is $520.00. He can pick-up the tractor Monday morning. He must bring certified funds for payment as to avoid any further problems. Just call after 8 am to advise when he will come. The guys might be at our other facility so I do not know if they will be here on Saturday or not. He can call if there is someone then he can make arrangements with them to pick up his tractor. Otherwise he can pick up the tractor on Monday no problems. )</font>


What a long time to do without a tractor. From August 10th, 2005 until November 7th, 2005. Sure put a damper on the food that is being produced. I will pick it up as soon as I can ---- giving I can scrounge the $520.00 to pick up tractor.
