Some guys get their wives roses or candy for Valentine's Day. I got...a tractor! Quentin brought our new addition home this morning. The dealer even threw in a pink hat for me that says "I (heart) John Deere". Be still my heart.

| New addition |
It's an 8310R and will be much more versatile for us than the set up we had with the 9200. (As a side note, the 9200 is now up for sale if anyone wants to get their significant other a unique V-day gift. It would make a great, one-of-a-kind lawn ornament that would be sure to get the neighbors talking.)
Quentin is out finishing up the last of Steeby's now. He was a little delayed yesterday after his near breakdown. He hopes to be done by early afternoon and then plans to swap tractors before he goes back to strip-tilling. He is eager to get the new one out in the field to see how it runs. So far I have heard that it "drives like a car". I am not sure what that means, but it is clearly a good thing.
