I've finally gotten the courage to make my first webpage. It certainly isn't done yet, but it is a decent start. What do you guys think? I tried to make it as informative as I could.

Great page...keep up the work. I look forward to reading more about your farm and all of your equipment. Those pages are really cool.

Very nice, looks like your farm could use some DEERE. Ha ha

Great work, JP! Looks good.

Although, I'm not too impressed with that view ;)

Only becuase I'm spoiled by this view from my front yard: Towards Town

and this was taken less than a mile from my house, lookin the other direction from the one above: Looking East

becuase my house sits here

The economy is 50th in the nation, the winters blow, but you can't beat good 'ol Montana.

Oh we got some of that green stuff. The only tractor that is completely in my name is a 1959 JD 630, back from the days when they made good stuff. But for all the real work you just can't beat RED.

I just sent them the link to it right before I posted this, don't know what they have to say yet. I did it completely as a surprise, I hope they like it.

In the words of a local farmer back home, these words ring true to me at least.

"Don't let any of those city slickers down at school try to impress you with their BMWs or Mercedes, just remember you have a $150,00K+ combine at home that you only use six weeks a year." :0

That is a good quote. Most people don't realize just how much farm equipment costs. They are hella expensive. One of my uncles has a CIH combine just like the one you have at your farm. That is the only thing I haven't had a chance to drive, cause like you said, you only use it for a few weeks a year (of which I am never back there during that time). That and they are probably scared I will destroy something (which is a good possibility, that darn thing is big).

Now that I think about it, the first time that I ever drove anything, it was a CIH tractor. dang that was a long time ago it seems, I was pretty young. When I get back there (Neb.) again I will have to get some new pics of the family farms to post for you and everyone to see.
