My dad used to talk about his aunt who took driving lessons from her husband. He got her to start out in low, then shift to 2nd and then to high. At the next stop sign he told her to go back to low and she said "Why? We already did that".
I drove a Case VAC on a bundle wagon in our threshing ring (some wagons had horses). Old man neighbor wasn't part of the ring, but he walked over one day to watch. He leaned on the rear lugs of the JD D as it powered the thresher. He hated tractors and wouldn't own one. After a while he said to the guy sitting on the seat "This thing's almost shot, it's only hittin' on two".
Us boys would sneak a cold beer out of the stock tank when no one was looking; tank was 1/2 in and 1/2 out of "pumphouse", small bldg at base of windmill. And they all had a tin cup hanging on a nail for drinking that cool water as it came up from the well powered by the windmill.
