The Guts of a Farmall

 


Our neighbor is always telling us about these tractors, all of which he was well aquainted with. He grew up on a farm in the 1940's. He would tell us how when they would break down, he would fix them with wire and chewing gum. He was joking about the gum. We took a lot of pictures of the Farmalls so that he could see them again. He went from there to being a top mechanic for airplanes in the Navy. He never has liked boats and really doesn't like to fly. He is a good friend and a treasure. If you knew him, you'd love him.

Working my way through the thicket of the American political scene. I am trying to not put any of that up on this blog EVER again. Meh!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE...
