Ralph, another fun video, as usual. Looks like you were having a good time on that trike! I can imagine why you're not out riding around in this weather, though...it looked pretty darn cold to me even in that video.
Charlie, yes indeed, this new place is well equipped for tractor storage! The block barn farthest northeast from the house has a great lower level with concrete floor, big sliding doors, and must be ten or eleven foot clearance below the underside of the second-floor joists, perhaps even 12 feet. A guy could get dozens of tractors in there without trying hard. And the old bank barn could hold another six or eight easy also on the upper level. Then there's the garage/shop/corncrib/miscellaneous barn to the south... I'll have to work hard to figure out where *not* to park something.
Nearing 9 pm on January 5th as I write this, still pretty warm outside (~35 F) but supposed to start falling fast and far. We'll see how tomorrow goes. Hope everyone is under cover with the power on.
