Serious Tractor Driving

This ain't no "baby" tractor--it was SERIOUS tractor driving this weekend! Allen patiently taught everyone and anyone who wanted in on farm implement driving--including the kids. The wheels were nearly taller than we were, so it was an adventure to say the least.

Farm equipment has travelled far into the world of technology, as we learned they are commonly equipped with computers and GPS systems. It was amazing to learn on how much they depend on such modern advances, and needless to say, it sold the kids completely!

Here's Uncle Fain having her turn--I think she was trying to convince Allen to drive it to the CVS!

Where is friday's piece. I am addicted. You are better than Katz because there are not 14 e-mails per day in my inbox. And your essay's make sense, at least to me. Come to think of it, that is not such a great compliment. What I mean is you are great and developing your own style. Keep going - I want more. I want a major article in front of me on sunday. From and written by the great Linda opps, I mean Lin.

GPS on a tractor? Interesting. I agree with Frank; your stories are very good.

That is very interesting that they now have a lot of technology on a somewhat simple machine. Your stories on this blog are very good and interesting.

Keep up the good work.
