The Tuul Crib 7,336 #1 Posted October 30, 2020 Got to work Today and glanced back at the city. I'm at 1 mile south of downtown at this point. The small red glow is the L and C Tower. this is one of the originals I believe back in the late 70s to early 80s. Now there are 14 cranes at this time! Over 100 persons Per day are moving here is what the projection has been. Doesn't help the Covid situation any. Nashville is getting crowded it's the 10th fastest growing in the country at this point! 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even now we don't have to tell them which way to turn off from the state road, there's only one choice. Edited October 30, 2020 by Achto 1 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Tuul Crib 7,336 #11 Posted October 30, 2020 I grew up in the Midwest mainly Iowa city home of the Hawkeyes football team. Anyway I grew up in a rural Road on 250 acres with a driveway that was a half a mile long. Of course we grew up with a green variety but they were our workhorse dinosaurs back then. I remember plowing with a four bottom plow and a John Deere 4020! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I grew up an hour west of where the John Deere plant was in Moline Illinois. I remember growing up when we went there to look at the current tractors at that time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ohiofarmer 3,265 #18 Posted October 31, 2020 I called in to a radio talk show with the location of Deploraville Ohio. they could not figure it out , so I told them it is where one of you feet is in a corn field and one is in a bean field. A feller figures that if you can't pee off the back porch, your neighbors are too close. Anyway, it is the main area test facility of square hood and black hood tractors. If one can be in range of Harbor freight, Rural king, and TSC stores, I consider that the center of the universe. What we lack in sophistication, we more than make up in common sense. Before everyone had a credit score, your family reputation meant something, and it still does out here in Deploraville. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
