The past six years back when my dad was alive he did his best to try to locate tractors for F.F.A groups in our area. he would not complain at least I never heard about the money given to the groups to keep theses tractors up and going. After his death two years ago us kids find notes from some of these groups. Sa to say but what we thought would had been thank you they where oppose it. This past year I heard form some of these groups asking for another tractor after they had learned my dad had past on hoping they would get another one. This last tractor show I was at in Nevada a tractor shop owner and me where talking. He had a trade in a John Deere 1010 and it would had made a great tractor for one of these groups but said to say as we talked I was shocked he said the same thing I was thinking. It made us feel good to give out to these groups but in time it got old when we had to give money and do the work to maintain these tractor. So sad for me to say but I am breaking family tradition by walking away from these groups in supporting them with a running tractor. It is sad when parents and the kids will not do the effort in maintaining there the equipment handed to them. I wish this was a positive note but some how I am heart broken by doing this.
