Do you ever find yourself driving around and always looking when there is a tractor working in the field or parked? ARe you always looking for tractors on the side of the road and if they are for sale? I look at every farm and search for tractors. I know every model tractor that the farmers around me own. Is that weird. I just sold my Farmall M to my father after much thought about it. Selling it to my pops was the best way to keep it and sell it you know. I'll still get to work on it with him. I don't exactly know why I sold it, but now I'm looking for another tractor. One with a little more power then the M. One with a 3 pt or one with hydraulics that worked. The farmer down the road from me has roughly 4 tractors. He doens't farm much. He has a few cattle and I think he hays. He only uses this one tractor he just got. I think it's a white. HE used to have an international that dissappeared. Now i see it again in teh field. It's a 1486 just sitting there waiting to work again. Next to a john deere 1010 or maybe bigger. I don't know if its his or not. In his tractor shed he's got a pretty large oliver. A 1550 i think. Then you move over to teh next space and parked is a box scraper and hay rake or something. Then there is the big old WHITE. Then a back hoe. Then another piece of equipment. Behind the equipment though peeking out is a little oliver grill a muffler and two wheels. I just noticed it. He doesn't use many of his tractors. I'm curious about if he would sell the little oliver or any other ones. He must be around 80 and still gets up everyday and drives down the road to his barn. He mows with a big woods batwing on the back of the white. I'm curious. Should I just go up to him and start talking to him or maybe write him a letter? What do you guys think?

When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
