My sympathies go out to ya ajschainsaws.
Despite the tractor being parked there, I can see the cliched signs of gentrification setting in.
Choked off street with the hoity-toity planter boxes is the world wide standard opening shot it seems.
But the bollards are just a like middle finger to anyone who grew up in an affordable area and has seen it go trendy.

Yeah it sure has changed it used too be all local produce flowers etc but now it's city wholesalers supplying food and Dutch trucks bring in the flowers

I was wondering how big a chunk it was capable of.

We are so tight over here there's a saying locally anything bigger than a donkey's manhood is firewood ha ha

Old equipment is cool! Welcome if no one else has not already.

Yes it is Steve when you see the old circular saws and rack beds cutting timber off the tractor pulley with belt as long as a bridge with less than a half century of pto hp but a massive stroke and hardly any rpm purring
away it's amazing I used too love putting the tar stick on the belt and listening to the belt joiners clunking over the pulley

Been over that bridge a few times passing through for moose hunting. Was it swaying in the wind today? I remember one time they did police esscorts across cause it was swaying.

thats pretty common. ive been across several times and had to be escorted by the bridge authority, though ive never felt swaying. they just escort to make sure people keep speed down, make it less likely for a gust of wond to turn into a catastrophe. had to sit for hours once because of ice falling off the cables.

He is still waiting for the pictures after clicking the link, downloading the malware, supplying his credit card number and email address, as well as his social security number and 401k info.

He's probably looking at the "Please wait, registration pending" notification on his screen.

I can not find anything about this couple. What is the significance?

We have a 6hp IHC "M" flywheel engine we run a buck saw with occasionally. My chainsaws are faster, but it is fun to live in the past once in awhile. I want to say that 15-30 is 4.5" bore and a 6 inch stroke. We are too cheap to find and buy the tar belt dressing, we just use great value maple flavored syrup lol (and then keep the mice away from the belts afterwards)

Just a piece of History to the Fennville area.

Love local history! Do you know anything deeper about them? I'd love to hear.
