Happy Independence Day to all my American friends. We owe a debt to our forefathers that can never be repaid. They pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to found the greatest country the world has ever known.
Nothing the government gives you is free.

Pics as promised ....... ( If you click on the pic you can view them without the obligatory PB advertisement) We were greeted by the hosts' granddaughter Emma, "manning" her lemonade stand, and collecting $bills as fast as she could pour 'em up. That is her behind the stand, with her mother, and her 95 yr. young great-grandfather awaiting his cold lemonade.  Three of the cookers used to grill the boston butts, ribs and chicken.  Some of the guests enjoying the lunch ..........   Under this huge live oak that shades a place of at least 120 ft. diameter.  Last stop of the meal ........... the JD powered double ice cream churn.  After lunch we were blessed (the kids who wanted to play on the waterslide and in the pool didn't agree) with a good thundershower which wet the large cotton field beside the yard with a much needed rain. What a great day! Drew, I share your concerns about the disunity in America, but have some strong feelings that compromise in many areas are not possible, if America is to continue to receive God's blessings. We can talk about that in private, if you'd like. Best to all, SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

Stan;
Are those the big 5 gallon White Mountain freezers. They look to be about that size in your picture, not sure if anyone other than White Mountain ever made them. I have eaten ice cream form a couple of setups very similar to this & they also used the JD hit'n'miss for power.
One year back in the early 90s we went to one of the JD two-cylinder expos out in Waterloo Iowa & they had a couple of the 5-gallon freezers making ice cream. They had theirs set up though to run off a PTO & had it hooked up to a 420.

Don't know what brand the churns are, Miller, but judging by the red 5 gal. buckets under them they are at least that big, maybe bigger.
The most technical thing I can answer for certain about them is that one contained vanilla and the other peach, ice cream. He said that, because of the weather today, it took about 1 1/2 hrs. to make it.
Pretty skillet of grub, Ted. I just had leftover mac 'n cheese for supper, and that pic makes me jealous!

Looks great- are one of the rafter chords broken off in the span- as per your foto showing inside of the building- or is that just an optical illusion. Love those old putt-putt John Deeres-= nothing else sounds quite like a JD-- Happy 4th- RWTF

Stan,
Collard greens, black eyed peas, bell pepper, onion, some garlic, thyme, salt, pepper and butter. The pork got pan seared in butter, just like mom would have done.
Quite tasty. Mac and cheese has its place.
Best,
Ted
