March 2009
Greetings from North Alabama, I hope this finds all of you and your families in good health and spirits. Our weather around here has really been a roller coaster ride lately. This past Monday the high was 18, with a wind chill of about 11, by Friday, the temperature was 68 and today (Sunday), the temp was 71 deg. It was a nice spring day. Of coarse, next week it’s suppose get back down into the middle fifties. All in all, our winter has not been bad, so I can’t complain.
The website is still trucking along great. We just continue to get visits from people interested in BF Avery tractors. Our website membership is growing and hopefully the information is helpful to the people who visit. We have 224 online members and have had 276,775 hits on the site. If you haven’t visited the website, then your really missing out on a lot of fun.

Greetings from North Alabama where Fall has fell. We’ve finally had a cool down and have been able to open the windows during the day. It sure makes for some fine sleeping weather here in the south when temps drop down into the 50’s during the night.
Cotton picking season is in full swing; from all appearances, it is going to be a good crop. We have gotten rains at the right time and now during the harvest season the rains have held off so the big picking machines can work the fields.
I guess it’s a sign of the changing times that the local newspapers no longer print articles describing the local crop productions. I can still remember when there was a daily Gin report with the number of bales of cotton ginned and the average tonnage shipped out. In the small West Tennessee town where I grew up, it was always printed who had the first cotton bloom and the first bole of cotton to open. The farmers saw it as a “Badge of Honor” to be first.

Greetings and Happy Holidays from North Alabama, I hope this finds you all happy and in good health going into the New Year.
From the looks of things around here it’s going to be a long cold winter. With electrical and natural gas prices at an all time high everyone is cutting back on their energy usage. We’ve knocked our thermostat back to 66 degrees and use space heaters in the bathrooms when needed. Maybe we’ll be able to make it through the winter without breaking what’s left of the bank.
The Avery website is doing great and we’re getting lots of visitors. At the time I’m writing this, we have had 225,339 visitors since creation of the site and have 214 registered website members. The website still ranks as number one for goggle searches on keywords such as BF Avery, Avery Tractors and Avery Collectors. Our availability time has been really good with only a couple of days of downtime due to software or database glitches.
