Now that story brings back memories! Dad lost his leg in WWII and stayed on active duty until 1971 when he retired with 31 years active duty. After we moved to MN and he "bought the farm", 200 acres, nice place he quit smoking. He put slipped in the bath tub one night and split the end of the stump open and couldn't wear his fake leg till it healed. He still did chores but didn't go into town for about a week. When he did it was on crutch's with his pant leg pinned up. The locals thought he had been in an accident and had just lost the leg because he never limped and they hadn't seen him in a week or so. Man it was funny to see their faces when they found out that his leg had been gone almost 30 years! Dad had a lot of fun with that leg, asking grand kids to help pull his shoe off and such! To me the funniest was not intentional. He kept his spare leg in the basement under the stairs. The freezer was down there too. Mom kept icecream bads and popsicles in it for the grand kids. So how the leg got knocked over and the foot was sticking out where it could be seen from the top of the stairs. My #2 son and nephew were told to go get treats when they were about 7 and saw that foot sticking out. They refused to go in the basement thinking that grandma and pa had body parts down there!

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
