Or somewhat.

Went to jville to oreillys auto parts to get the filters. Asked about dist cap, rotor button, and plugs for the case d310g. They had them all in stock!

Went by the Coop and no top-link. No truck yet.

Went to Alexandria Tractor to see how much they wanted for one and an old friend is now working there. Shot the shit a bit and got one for less than the coop wanted for it. He can also get me the info on the John Deere dozer engine. Gonna get some casting numbers and take out to him and see what he can come up with.

Went to the dairy but the place was overrun with kids so I opted to leave rather than pitch a bitch in public (again).

Came back here and put the top link on and filters in. Had to cut a bit off the seal on the outer one but they both fit fine.

Cranked the massy up and took it to the parking area and started to load it but backed off when the trailer started into the air cause the front wasn't tied down.

Got the truck and unloaded the trash that was on it in the field for flamage later. The wood and bamboo came up and unloaded at the end of the 12 wide. Hooked up the trailer and then loaded the tractor. Located a tie-down and after locking the brakes strapped it down. Got Cat and over the hills and through the dale we went to the folks house.

Backed it into the front yard and unloaded the tractor. Unhooked the trailer. Moved the truck to the back yard and loaded the rest of the fire wood into it.

Talked a bit on the porch. Bill saw us and stopped by for a bit. Dad was about to fall asleep so we loaded up and headed back over here.

I unloaded the truckload of wood under the leaning oak up from the bus. Brought the truck to the back door of the greenhouse and Cat and I loaded it with furniture and crap from the greenhouse. Moved it to the 12 wide. Bill came by and helped us unload it.

Brought it back over here and got the parts to put in the case. Dist cap and button went in fine but the plugs are a different matter. they are not a standard size! first for me but they are larger than a standard plug so am going to have to go buy a new socket just for this. Pisses me off!!!

That was the end of being productive for me. Went on a search for deep well sockets and located some but am still missing a BUNCH! Guess will go and buy another set in the morning. Dark fell and I bowed out gracelessly…

Really tired. Guess I over did it again. Need to tank up on vitamins and herbs before going to bed. will have to eat a bit more to do so. An excuse for Ice Cream!
