I was raised on a B Allis Calmers. We raised watermelons, peanuts, corn and had a big garden. Had all the implements including a mule walking cultivator modified to fit for plowing close around watermelons. Your tractor brought back a lot of good memories.
Glad she could do that for you. She even has the tracks for it.

Now that you have that nice cover for Alice, time to have her repainted.

I put some signs up on the port. I hope to buy a bunch of pumpkins, corn stacks and bales of straw to decorate for fall.

The trash barrel is a nice touch and your ideas on painting both the inside wall and the rear facing are great! People will get a kick out of the “come back real soon” message.

I am thinking a vintage Coke or Pepsi logo with one those cute ladies holding a bottle with the saying underneath.

These are commercial grade solar lights. They are on bright and not intended to stay on continuous. At 30% they are dimmer but will last all night. If I get one for each post they will be this bright and stay on all night.
