Yes, I feel I'm very lucky to get to work on this tractor with Dad. He is in pretty good shape for his age but you never know when God needs him more than we do here. He is super proud of helping out on it. He wouldn't say it to me but when my sister visited him recently, all he talked about was getting it running for me when he knew I was coming up to Montana to work on the components.
I was Dad's shadow growing up and I guess I was burnt out on everything. I can't complain now because it showed me work ethic. I have a 16 yo daughter and my son is 13. We live in town so they don't get to experience much of what I did growing up on a farm. Sadly, a person can't trust other people to just let the kids go out in the woods to explore or just kick around.
My son doesn't get too excited about my interests (I fish bass tournaments) and I guess I don't push him very hard towards stuff either. I don't want to be too overbearing, he does very well in school so that is enough for me. He does like the tractor and can't wait to drive it next time we are out to Travis' house. Dad bought a Cub this summer and the kids had the chance to drive it in Montana and pull the hay rack. I just wish we lived closer.

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
