I have a line on my second horse - finally

[dgjks6 8]

My wife had a christmas party lst night for her "Panera Crew" who she has coffe with every morning. One of the couples live about 1 mile from us. Of course the conversation went to my wife complaining about me always working on a working tractor (now I am restoring my 37 inch side discharge deck). They said they have her father's early 70's 14 or 16hp wheel horse with 5 attachments under a tarp in their back yard for the last 11 years. It has a deck, blade, snow thrower, and a few things they were not sure what they were. I am going to try to go over and take a look at it today. Maybe even take it off their hands for free.

I second what Bill said :horseplay: even if you dont end up getting it for free maybe you wont have to give your right leg for it good luck and its possible that other people will keep you in mind if they run accross one :omg:

Hey.....be happy your wife at least brings up your hobby in conversation.

I see a new neighbor just finished building a home near us. And I spy a late 70's wheel horse sitting outside behind the house... He has a three car garage. This must mean he is intending to get rid of it...... I am going over with an apple pie to welcome them to the neighborhood. Break the ice....and maybe the conversation can land on horses!
