Pete, glad to see you can get in to do some cleanup. Lot's of old CAT's damaged here. but not the restored ones "yet". But you can't really completely smash these old tractors with a tree. Everyone be safe working in this new coming storm. I will be not be working on my santa margarita project, "Military" CAT 22" for now,[attachment=40295]P1030546.jpg[/attachment] but I did get the tracks painted with some (new water base flat olive drab). Really nice to work with!
That wind after this much rain really puts the trees to the test. We passed 36 inches here for the season so far. Imagine you are well past that.

Regardless if nature did it, it's always a shame to see trees destroyed.
Man, look how green that place is. You guys need to buy some sheep while the going's good and start grazing the long acre
Come on Neil we already have well feed coyotes,lions,eagles,and bears plus a stray wolf or 3 from Oregon. We need something big that can fight back elk maybe ...... Oh there are already spreading nicely so as to take fences down so the sheep could be out in the road for snowflakes to run into. And we all know what trauma that would gives a snowflake.
On a more serous note after 5 dry years it is nice to see green everywhere this season.
Dpete had that in 94 was not as bad as first thought. But still major job that took some thinking to get back without modern sky hooks. A determent brother in law that lost his job at 63 in a corporate cost cutting moves made it happen. With the improvement of full width doors for a hay squeeze to fill it.
Everybody stay safe with all the storm clean up that will be coming.
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
