I was headed out to chore yesterday morning about 8:30. I pulled out of the farm yard and met a Penske rental box truck about half way down the road - dash piled high with junk and flying along faster than anyone over the age of 25 knows to do on gravel. Out of curiosity I stopped the tractor and watched in the mirror. Sure enough, it pulled into the barnyard. I just waited there for what seemed like an eternity until I finally decided to turn around and head home. I just turned into the lane when it began to back up toward the road.
I know that carriers (FedEx in this case) have to hire additional help and machines during this time, but I HATE having any unmarked joker I don’t know at the farm on the off chance I am out in the field.

They would make lots of us rural folks much more at ease and city folk are more used to seeing something drive by that they don’t know. I get about three cars a day down this road. Anything out of the ordinary has me dropping my work and heading for the house if I can see it from where I am.

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
