My brother and I would like to organize a tractor ride this fall. We've been talking about it for quite some time now but haven't taken the idea very far. He's coming home from Iraq this summer. With that tour under his belt he's definitely looing forward to some seat time on a tractor ride. We've got a bunch of people that would be interested but it takes someone to make it happen so we figured we'd tackle it.
