54496 Joe & Johanna Kern <jkern@m...> 1998‑12‑10 Bio
Hi:
My name is Joe and I have lurked almost a year now.   SWMBO and I live on a
small ranch near Absarokee.    We ranch, custom cut hay (in the summer), do
some
custom farming (spring and fall), and SWMBO teaches English riding.  Oh,
and build
the occasional piece of custom furniture.   We raise Australian Shepherd
dogs,
commercial cattle, commercial sheep, warmblood horses.
I just turned 40 and have a little girl who is 20 months.  I have always
liked using
"old tools" and have learned a lot lurking, and been inspired to use more
hand tools
since lurking.   I have   started to accumulate a few more tools made
before my time
(I am not a collector tho).  I still like the other tools (the bigger the
better) that use
*l*ctr*ns, but promise not to discuss them in public.     I just recently
restored a sheep wagon
(to be used as a playhouse).
Good to meet everyone here on the porch.

joe
