Riding in the cab of the 830 Case comfort king while dad was baling hay with a 5600 Heston baler. When the going was good he'd run it in 5th gear (1st high), and that gear had a distinct whine to it.

I'd throw an old blanket or pad on top of the rocks and ride in the barrel as grandpa gathered the round bales off the fields in the fall and brought them into the yard before the snow got too deep in the winter. Grandpa has been gone 20 years now, I own the farmstead, but dad and all three tractors are still here on the farm and going strong yet today.
