Cold,rain/snow mix and some old coot drove through a 5 strand barbed wire fence.
I had put my heavy coveralls on figuring they'd soak up water before it got to my skin if I worked fast. I took a bale across the road,closed the gate and had to wait for a car that was coming before I could cross the road. An SUV. The old guy never slowed down,never made any attempt to turn,just ran straight off the curve,up through the ditch,through the fence and out in the pasture. I drove down there quick,had quite a time even getting his attention,he finally rolled down the back window before he rolled down the front one. Seemed real confused. Didn't have a clue why he'd done what he did. I told him not to try to drive back out so he tore up any more fence.
I came up and called the cops. While I was on the phone,he drove back down nose first in to the ditch. I hung up and shot right back down there on the tractor. By then he was hung up crossways with two wheels off the ground. I sat there in the rain for 20 minutes or more waiting for the cops. A neighbor stopped and I told him to wait there a minute,I'd get the wife to come down in the pickup and wait.
I was loading the second load of silage when a state cop finally went by. I shot back down and the guy was telling him just what he did and that he didn't know what happened. Handicap plate,walker in the back seat,confused as all get out and when the wrecker go his car out,the cop let him get right back in and drive away.
If he goes down the road and kills somebody,it's not on me. I called the cops. Now I'm just hoping the rain lets up long enough to fix the fence without having to change everything all the way down to and including my underwear again.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. 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
