Flax is blooming here in Sask. and I thought it made a good photo opportunity for the Cockshutt 40 and took a few yesterday.

Nice picture, Ralph.  I used to plant a small patch of buckwheat mostly to see the bloom.  Thanks for posting.  I have not seen flax in the field before.  If I can get them linked, here are a few pictures for you .

That is strange.  The sight will only link to the pictures if I have the picture sight open.  More later.

Finally made a bunch of changes and have pictures now in original post.  8/4

Ralph,

Nice picture!

If you ever take a vertical picture of one of your tractors, rather than the standard horizontal one, you might consider emailing it to me.

I can always use (tall, vertical,portrait) format pictures for the cover photo of W.A.I.T.

Always thought that Cockshutt made nice looking tractors.

Charlie,nice photos you have there. I just found my way back here so good to see some activity.
George, I have a picture (vertical) but will have to get it into an album online to post it here.

Flax, my goodness, its been around forever. The linoleum on your kitchen floor is made from flax oil. Lin seed oil is also from flax oil. Some breakfast cereals contain it and it is being pushed as a health food lately. Lots of omega 3 in it. Not sure what that is but its good for what ails you as my Dad used to say.
I'll have to take a look at your Case. I was out on the old 730 Case this afternoon playing in the dirt (mud actually).
