Last October, on a 2-day weekend, our community of Reedsburg (pop 9500) had an "Art Tour" thru the city and rural countryside, showing paintings, barn quilts, roadside fruit & vegetable stands, old cars and tractors parked on lawns, etc. I was asked to have some tractors at a cheese stand for an added attraction. There were a lot of cars slowly going by....many people stopped in to buy cheese and some people walked over to see the tractors. The tractors were rejuvinated Farmalls and Olivers from the 1950 era.
I stuck around most of those two days to kind of watch for anyone who had questions, or aid kids climbing on the tractors, and I passed the time by eating cheese, sitting in a lawn chair and listening to the Packer game.
I had two men, in their 30s or 40s, at separate times come up to me, point at the tractors, and ask "What are those machines?". They were from Madison, Wi, and they honestly did not know what a tractor was or what it was built to do.
And this in a dairy state with farms and tractors everywhere. No wonder they think food originates at a super market!
