Having been raised the "redheaded stepchild" in a prominent farm family presented some very unique challenges. My father died shortly after my 1st birthday and later Mom married Dad. Dad was a 39 year old bachlor still living at home. Dad's father hated my sister and I as we 'were not blood'. So over the years I was pretty much known as Ted's b**tard boy. I always thought Johnny Cash wrote 'boy named Sue' for me. Over the years going on the advice my maternal Grampa gave me, I tried to do right by people whenever I could, and still do. Most of the old farts are gone now and I get to stand on the face of the worst one as I pay homage to Mom and Dad at the family burial plot. Funny thing is, I'm the only 'kid' from my generation in the family that stayed in the area even though I was never allowed to be anything on the farm but grunt labor. Dad's father must roll over in his grave to see that I've lived on 12 acres of the old farm since I've been out of high school (30 years). Don't take to old guy crap seriously, just remember the is only one you need to please, and his son pleads your case on a regular basis if you let him.

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
