And the tractor runs...

YES you read that correctly! Yesterday after trial and many errors I - correction - God and I got Aggie going again. I was going to go out and drive in circles and toot the horn! However our Mennonite neighbor was entertaining company so I thought it best to remain somewhat sain. Even though I was SO SO SO happy! I just let her run... then shut her off and added Hydraulic Fluid. It's so good to have our tractor running again. And I will know more what I'm doing the next time, and I know now how to bleed air from the fuel line.

I am very thankful though to out other neighbor for sending his son down to feed hay for us and the other neighbor to put grain in our temporary feed bin so we wouldn't have to bucket feed in. Even though I do get frustrated with out neighbors (some more than others) At least the will help us in a pinch.

I am also very thankful for the break in the weather. Let me tell ya... 48 seems like heaven compared to 9 above and 0 for a low. Today we are in the low 40's with wonderful sunshine and blue skies.

What blessings, Sara. Your tractor works - and YOU now know how to fix it! Sounds to me like God at work. :)
