Start up your tractor

2010-05-02T08:03:00.000-07:00

It's time to get outside and do some good old-fashioned farming. If you have an antique John Deere tractor, use it for the purpose for which it was intended. If you don't have a farm, at least do some gardening with it. We usually plant a BIG garden!

Tip of the Week

2010-04-24T07:32:00.000-07:00

Meli now gives you at least THREE tips every week. One helps you find useful products, another is a hint that will help you with your restoration, and the third is the answer to a question that someone else asked by email. If you don't find the answer to YOUR question in the "Tips", you can email Meli or Gene and ask YOURSELF.

What IS a "blog" anyway?

2009-05-08T05:52:00.000-07:00

Welcome to the Retired Tractors Blog.

The word "blog" is a contraction of "web log". So, what is THAT? Well, MY interpretation is that it is a diary or "log" of what happened today. But, instead of being kept in a little black book, it's kept on the web. Instead of being locked up and kept secret, it's made public.

So, what happened on retiredtractors.com today? We started a BLOG, THAT'S what!
