I bet you are in the area you and I had our coffee when I was there, looking out the glassed in area , good morning Pete
If I recall right we got you a score in it. It was like 100-125. Plus had all the little goodies and such
@FISHYPETE sorry didn't really get a chance to take to many pics. Heck I left the car long enough to go to the bathroom...busy, busy, place. Lots of people coming through to look and talk.
Here is a pic with wife and I with the car and hardware in front of the city's Old Dutch Mill.

My buddy’s cousin has deer in his back yard quite often.
Not for much longer though. The developers are surveying...

That's right it had some other parts, TDC indicator a spring scale and a few smalls. Spark adapters for the old timing light. They are scary put this chunk of metal between the spark plug and the wire and hook up the light to it!

Bringing home the hardware is great but it’s the pics and memories that are better. Congrats
Love those machines.
I hate when they do that. Then in 5 years time the new neighborhood is suing cause the cows are too loud or the tractors smoke and are slow.
We have a lot of folks that move to the country and all of a sudden someone builds a hog confinement unit across the road. I don't blame them for being pissed. There are laws to limit and control the placement now days.
Thong Thursday already! Good Morning
Yeah but who owned the ground in the are first? The farmer has a right to expand his operation. That said, I'm against confined feeding operations for a variety of reasons. But we recently had a local case where a farmer simply built a barn that was maybe 20-25 percent larger than the old barn which had burnt in a lightning strike. He added some 20 cows, not a confined feeding operation, just a dairy operation, got sued by a nieghborhood association about 2 miles away claiming a property value drop because of the smell from the additional cows... He won as there was nothing wrong with what he did but it cost him several hundred thousand dollars and about 5 years of fighting.
Sorry, but if you move out near farms, you have no choice or say in what that existing farmer does with his/her operation.
Hard to believe its only one week till Carlisle. This time tomorrow @Mopar Tim will be en route to pick up my bumper (and a few small items for Hoppy) then trecking eastward a couple more miles...
Agreed! I grew up on a farm and although the hog houses weren't the best smelling places, it's production agriculture and the farmers do have rights too. I saw this morning on the news that only 2% of the US population are production farmers. They produce food for 98% of us. They have to do what is necessary to be successful.
Yes and No. If he was expanding that should be OK. If changing, maybe not. ie bigger barn, more animals OK. But if you were basically growing crops and kept a handful of animals in a shed and now want a hundred head of whatever...that's a different use and needs to be considered. On the other hand if you move in to a house in the winter and it stinks next summer when the **** heats up - too bad.
fixed, lol
Carlisle is now officially on ny bucket list. Couple years.
it was an already existing operation. It's one of the oldest dairy operations in the state, well over 100 years old. Not very big, maybe 2-3 hundred head. They've been around that number for my entire life. They make a lot of specialty cheeses and such, family owned. Not a commercial operation. A neighborhood two miles away should have NO say. Especially when there is no waterway/creek for miles in any direction. and they're at a higher elevation so they can't claim runoff either.
It was too wet to spray a few crops, farmer hired a spray plane.
Newcomers in the area all whiny about the plane and the chemicals.
Their property borders farmland, what the hell did they expect?

Looks like it could become (one of) the annual meeting(s) of the coffee club. I'm going to get out to the garage shortly and start digging out parts to see what is going to fit in the Duster trunk to take along for sale.
Cattle aren't bad. Hogs aren't too bad unless confined with pits under the units. Poultry has a high ammonia smell. There again, not bad unless confined.
So, how are they claiming that it impacts them?
How many of you guys are going? A dozen I bet.
