I am getting dangerous in my older age I guess. Sometimes I feel nothing is safe if I am around.
Yesterday I backed my Gator over one of my Grandsons Tonka trucks and demolished it.
Not the first time this has happened...one dead old hard hearing cat....and a smashed pedal tractor pull behind trailer that I had just restored and painted for him.
These toys where the same ones my son played with when he was a kid.
Bad thing about it is, not 2 minutes before, I had told him to put his Tonka's away so I wouldn't run over them tomorrow with my gooseneck trailer. Little did I know that he had just moved them off the driveway to the barn and they were hidden in my blind spot around the corner of the grainery. I had just finished filling the gator with diesel and he and my other grandson where headed out to feed calves. Neither of them alerted me to the fact they had just put the toys in my path.
So he was pretty upset when he realized what happened to his truck as we backed around the grainery.
So this morning I have him a like new Tonka truck coming on the way from that E-*** website....just exactly like the one I smashed less all the rust, lol.
How do I give him this without taking away from a lesson learned...(put your stuff away).

Today's Featured Article - Restoring a John Deere 2010 Diesel Tractor - by Jim Nielsen. Following seven years working in California's Silicon Valley, my wife, baby son and I moved back to Australia to retire. We bought a small 'farm' of about 50 acres near Bendigo, in the state of Victoria. I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
