Part of the problem with helping or getting help or equipment is that someone is always last in line or is the one getting the equipment after it's been broken and the repair either wasn't done or wasn't done right or he showed up to the 4 farms ahead of him but only half the crew shows up to his farm. It's trying to schedule the weekend guys around the full time guys.And then there are the personalities. I have neighbors that I'd love to help if they'd help me, but the drama that goes with one of them is terrible and the other has a work schedule that's insane to work around. Plus the drama queen can't fix anything or operate a shovel without someone babysitting him, much less a baler.
So we tend to go it alone and help from time to time. It's just the way it is. Plus, equipment is relatively cheap and far more avaialble than it was during and after WW2. The old days are sort of gone I suppose. And yeah, our society breeds more isolation, that's a fact. No one has time for the Lodge or the Rotary or Elks, no one puts their kids in 4H because there's so much school stuff to do. Plus, people are working more than ever hour-wise the studies say. It's a lot less stressful and expensive to turn on the TV than go to 4H or Scouts. And church?! The national campaign of driving faith out of our lives has reached an all time high. You are a freak if you actually attend church anymore ir think of anything beyond the moment. Pretty sad.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. 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
