It's been a busy month here at 3-Point Ink headquarters. Last week I was in Texas running around and getting a few stories. I spent one day on a rice farm with a family that farms with 5 John Deere Wagner tractors. It was quite an operation and I may just have to go back in the fall to take part in the rice harvest operation.
You will be pleased to learn that the next issue of Heritage Iron dropped in the mail yesterday, a week ahead of schedule. By the time the USPS delivers it to you, I'll be half done with the next issue.
If you make it to the Gateway Toy Show this weekend, stop by the booth and take a sneak peak at the new issue. If you don't make it there, we'll have a booth set up at the Farm Machinery Show in Louisville, KY. The booth is under the name Oliver Heritage but we're located in the West Hall in booth 661. Please stop by and say Hi.
If you are concerned that you missed an issue, we have only printed 2. Issue #1 has two 1206s on the cover. Issue#2 has a JD 8020 on it. Any pictures of other covers are simply mock-ups of future issues. I've had quite a few people call trying to order the issue with the AC 220 on it. It doesn't exist yet but hang in there and it will.
We missed most of the ice here in Nokomis but we did get a dusting of snow. Between that and the cold temperatures, I'm ready for spring. Even the truck didn't want to start this morning and go out in the cold. One Interstate battery later, all is well again. I am so ready for spring but I fear I have a long wait yet. Until then, I'll just sit here in front of the fire.
