Yeah, I'll second the camera thing, LBrown. You and that fleet of BXs have become legendary. WE NEED PICTURES!!!

I am sympathetic to your situation, however. At our age, constantly hooking up implements and unhooking them gets to be a drag. With so little time left, who wants to waste it doing that? Even with Pat's EZ Change, it's not what makes tractoring fun.

So the above suggestions to buy more implements should be taken with a grain of salt. I'd say, "Don't buy more implements until you have more BXs to hitch them to!". In other words, the ideal is a 1-to-1 ratio between BXs and implements. That way, if you've got an implement, it'll always be hitched to a tractor and ready to go. After all, what good is an implement when not hitched to a tractor? It just gathers rust and dust and gets in the way.

Think of all the cussing and frustration this will save. Think of all the wasted time that will instead be converted to useful tractoring. Think of how amazed your friends will be. Think of the trouble you'll avoid by being too broke to do anything else

Somebody's got to set the precedent; why shouldn't it be you?

I don't need a bigger one but the picture lovers on here tell me I need a digital camera.

Still willing to "man-up" but not holding my breath waiting for the Kodak moment.

As the boys said you can never have too many attachments.

LBrown59, I've been meaning to ask you, are you the same LBrown that coach at KU and won the national championship in 1988? And went on to coach in the NBA?

I've decided to sell the 67 Bolens and all the Bolens attachments;
and keep the 66 Bolens as a keep sake.
Thanks all for your replys.

I better get that camera too - you guys are sending me on a guilt trip and I'm startin to feel like I'm mistreating you fellows on the picture thing.

I just recieved a Panasonic DMC-LZ7 digital to replace my hp 533-nice little unit. My kids thought i needed an upgrade. Or they want the hp. I'm not sure.

It is actually called neglect! That is what you are doing. You are neglecting us in thepicture department. We are starting to question whether you really even own a Kubota!

I think it would go a long way towards your membership here. I would love to see some pics of the projects, equipment you post about. Might even get you off of some folks ignore list . I know it would help your post count go up, because once you start posting, it's kind of habit forming. I have one of the Kodak sure shots, or something like that, about $100 at wally world. But you might opt for a more expensive camera, since you have some expensive tractors (Kubota's) . Good luck to you. Might even go with a camera phone as MrJimi suggests, don't know if you already have cell phone or not, but might be time to get onboard with that too.
