I farmed in the 60s with a new JD crawler, tillage, no hay. I bought a "25 Fordson to pack silage in the trench and bunker silos but I soon found out it could do a lot of other things. Pulled the manure spreader and the engine drive baler when I started haying after I sold the cows. We pull-started it a lot. It had an impulse mag so it never kicked back cranking. The clutch was slow to disengage. I put the crank thru the milkhouse door once pulling up to fill the radiator. It wouldn"t hold antifreeze so I didn"t put water in it til I got it started in winter. It stopped when the rad hit the door. One time was pull starting it with the truck and when it started I pushed it out of gear like usual (pushing the clutch in put the brake on). My daughter saw me overtaking her and stomped on the gas which instantly broke the tow chain. The long end went over the truck bed and creased the cab. The short end hit the gas tank in front of the steering wheel. I"m 80 and it was one of many close ones while farming. It sat outside for years and water rusted the sparkplugs off so water got into it and broke the head. My grandson discovered that when he took it apart after I gave it to him.

Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
