1953 Ford Jubilee and Daisy Belle

My wife and I had a dream of owning a little land and raising a family. We purchased 12 acres and built a home during the covid pandemic. With the rising cost of lumber during the construction we were forced to buy an older tractor. Our 1953 Ford Jubilee turned out to be one of our best investments for $1500 money can buy. It’s been a property workhorse now since having done everything from brush cutting to this photo opportunity backdrop for our furry friends. Our Cockapoo named Daisy Belle was rescued from a shelter and brings lots of love and joy to our 4 Daughters, my Wife, and I. As you can see, she fits right in on our little homestead and loves to watch over our chickens too!
