On Farm


2018-08-12


This week I was on the farm. Last year Daddy drove the trucks a lot, but this year Bob needed him in the tractor. I still got to ride in all three trucks a few times with Daddy, but I wasn't in them all day. And I spent a little time with Myron in the combine, and some with Jim pulling the harrow. But most of my time riding was with Daddy while he was disking. I also spent a lot of time playing with my farm toys at the house, and I visited Kenny at his shop to see his collection of farm toys (he even gave me a tractor and an mower, which was really nice).

Kenny has a lot of tractors!

Daddy had a little incident with the truck and these fenders got wrecked.

The tractor and disk Daddy was driving.

We stopped to visit the four-track tractor.

Toy farming at the kitchen counter - it's like my Daddy's standing desk.

The tractor with the harrow - it is 84 feet wide!

We found a snowmobile in one of the sheds.

And that was my visit to the farm. I had to go back to Grandma and Grandpa's house, but Daddy stayed to help Bob some more.

Take care!
