Larry I know what you are saying about slowing down when you turn 50. When I was young there weren't enough hours in a day. I worked hard & I mean real hard ALL THE TIME. My Mom told me I would slow down when I turn 50. Well she was right. I am 58 now & a 9 - 10 hour day is enough for me now. I do seem to work smarter now than when I was younger. I did a FIRST for me the other day. I went to a friends place & he had a crew hired to pour a floor in his new shop & I grabed a five gallon bucket & sat & watched. That was a first for me & I can't even guess how many yards of cement I have poured in my lifetime. I guess I have reached a threshold in my life where I can say it is OK to let the younger ones do some of this work. I also laugh to myself & say they will get old to someday. But on the other hand it amazes me how I can still work cicles around some of these young guys. I can thank my Dad for the work ethics that I have today. It made me what I am. Gerald

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
