What's important is that you're still out there every day... and coming back to check in at night. :thumbsup:

That's a very serious subject with the manufacturer. My youngest son is an engineer at a Mars candy factory. You can rest assured that it is next to impossible for a Milky Way bar to have been exposed to nuts. Mars doesn't make any candy with nuts in the factory he's at. Nuts are strictly prohibited on the company property. The company store doesn't sell any candy (made in other factories) that have nuts. If he carried his lunch he couldn't even have a PB sandwich or nuts on his salad.

And I can understand why. One peanut snuck into a Milky way could be a multi million dollar lawsuit.

Been tested? Dry cough is indicative of the you know what....
I came back from a business trip to Singapore the day before Valentine's Day. The hotel I stayed in had already had a case of CV. Everywhere I went, everyone was being temp checked. Restaurants, metro train, etc. When I came back my wife threatened me (in jest) that she was going to quarantine me to our house and she would take a two week vacation south for some sunshine.

She thinks I may have had it. And I did get kind of sick upon my return but that isn't unusual for me to get run down after a two week intense business trip to Asia which I do often. She didn't come down with anything. But that said, my chronic cough has been present for years. One thing I do know my cough isn't from COVID-19. Do I have sellable antibodies? That might be worth testing for! :laughing:

Who would put peanut butter in a chocolate cookie?
PB and chocolate go together like blue and jeans. They're made for each other.

And now, my chronic cough gets me dirty looks in public!

My chronic cough has been around a lot longer than 'it' has.

and are constantly dirty, usually only getting washed when Mother Nature breaks out a heavy rain storm.
That's the only time any of my vehicles or equipment get washed.

All the Toolcat guys are smart......like me. :D
So I was in the M126x today tedding hay and I noticed my roll of paper towels was chewed on and there was some mouse terds behind the seat :yuck: :yuck:
I know they can make you sick, but I didnt break out today at all. Now is this because the Prednisone is keeping the reaction away? I wont know until a while after I stop taking the pills. :confused2:
The brown tailed moth is interesting....
I still think it was a mist I inhaled from a heavy, noxious field Im in the process of rehabbing. I remember Monday, I could smell the mist from those 15 swaths of shredded crappy weeds.
I still think it was an inside out rash.


I feel fine, but I dont know what will happen after the roids wear off.
I agree. You were in two different tractors on two different days and had the reaction both times. What was the common denominator? Same weed mist in the air.

We farm 370 acres on 22 different properties in 3 counties and 2 states. My tractors and equipment are left in fields for days at a time and I don稚 have cats traveling with them. Sometimes mice just show up and do their thing, wether it痴 1 mile to 25 miles from the storage barn
I知 sure yours are neater and cleaner than mine. Probably have the cabs vacuumed couple times a week and hoods waxed.
Mine get used to their absolute limits and are constantly dirty, usually only getting washed when Mother Nature breaks out a heavy rain storm.

I will get rid of the mouse droppings I saw, but I don稚 think that痴 the reason I had the break out.

I farm remote fields myself and my tractors also sit away from home quite a bit. No, they don't get waxed, why wax a faded to Mary Kay pink Kubota anyway? They all get washed when they get serviced however. I don't like working on grimy mechanicals. When they get serviced, I blow the cabs out with an air gun and in the field, I'll take a whisk broom and sweep the mud and junk off the floor.

I've never liked a cluttered with junk cab. My SOP in a cab is the FM transceiver and a roll of ever present toilet paper. One never knows when it's field fertilizer time do they?

Wife buys me these nifty rolls of TP in a hard plastic dispenser. That way it stays clean until I need it...:D

My friend down the road farms 1100 acres and his equipment comes to the barn every night unless they are out in a rain event and then it sits in the field.

I run my equipment hard too. I just have a maintenance schedule and I stick to it.

One thing I bought recently that I really like is a 'Foam Cannon' I can put on the business end of my pressure washer. I 'foam' the tractors and rinse it off. The detergent foam really cuts the accumulated chaff, road dust and mud and makes life easier for me. I use ZEP degreaser on the mechanical's before service. Like that stuff too.

No pretty faces here. No lawn ornaments or poser tractors either. If they become an issue, they go down the road.
