Just thought i would drop by and see how everyone is doing out there. I know for me its just been to dang hot to get out and do much. I put up a couple hundred square bails a week or so ago and it was a entertaining trip to say the least. I followed my grandpa into a field i had never been to thinking he knew his way around. he drives a little 91 Chevy s10 pretty nice truck for its age. Anyways i was following him and right in front of me his truck slid sideways into a deep ditch and never the less i followed him right off into it truck trailer and all. I put mine in 4x4 and drove on out the other side but his didn't fair as well. We had to get a big ole Ford tractor to pull him back up on level ground and he tried to help the tractor as if it needed any and threw it in reverse while the tractor was pulling him forward now his transmission is acting up a little when shifting gears, other than that there was no damage to either truck. Just a bad start to the day i guess. but we got the hay up despite the heat. I dunno how many bottles of water we drank while we were out there but it took a large yard/garden bag to pick them all up outta the bed of my truck lol. For 3 guys we sure did put it away that day. I hate this heat this year seems like every year it gets a little worse too. I hope y'all are making it ok in this weather. I guess heat sure does beat the tornadoes we were having everywhere. Hope y'all are doin good !!!!!

All things considered were doing ok here. Its been a bummer tho,I have to stay inside and wear a mask now due to my volatile reaction to coal. Margo and I will be moving back to AZ hopefully soon. There's a new store opening in Cave Creek north of Phx in a couple of months that is seriously considering Margo , hopefully we will find out if she gets the job soon. It sure is pretty here in the summer, albeit hot and humid at times tho.I love the rain storms that we get here. I have seem more rain in a few days than I have seen for 2 monsoon seasons in my part of AZ Also at times I have looked out the window there have been fireflies out and I think they are one of the most incredible things I have even seen. I am in awe of how pretty they are. However I sure do wish I could get out and enjoy the outdoors. If it keeps on like this I'm going to be forced to go back before Margo which I seriously don't want to have to do , it would break my heart. Margo said she would rather be without me temporarily than me suffocate and be without me for good. She almost got hired for a job in Tucson this week, a associate was leaving a store in Tucson and the manager said he was going to hire Margo and at the last minute the person decided she wasn't going to leave so that one didn't work out. I have a good feeling that she will get this Cave Creek position and we will be able to go back together. John... aka Amish John

I haven't been around lately. Slow internet, high heat among some of my reasons. Had to bury my best friend who lost his battle with cancer, his funeral was 8/31. It hit me hard. Now it is September already, looking forward to the fall which is my favorite time of year. Sold my 269H so I am down to one worker, looking for an affordable twin down the road. My son wants me to get a zero turn but I just haven't made my mind up. Next week is vacation week so I am going to work on the garage so my wife can park her car in it. Hope nothing else comes up....

I'm just tooo d**n busy between driving otr and then get home for a day or two trying to get things done around here that I'm getting behind in. Maybe once winter gets here I'll be on here more.
I got to try getting on here from my "smart" phone! I have brought my laptop along but not always around wi-fi.
I missed hearing why John is moving back to AZ, health reasons it sounds like.
Hang in there guys!
