We have an industrial sized lawn mower that I was scared to death to learn how to "drive" (this is from the girl that can't even drive a stick shift.) Well the husband finally had enough and made me learn- a very frightening experience for sure! I can do ok now but i'm still not allowed to cut the grass or it will look like a crack head did it LOL!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14989528656890002126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8329622951839766826.post-86293013847762281892008-01-09T14:03:00.000-07:002008-01-09T14:03:00.000-07:00Whew - just got back from doing my chores - had to...Whew - just got back from doing my chores - had to go to the other place today to feed the horses.

Massey-Ferguson maybe?<BR/>The second JD we had was easy to operate, but then dad got one with two gear shifts. Sigh.<BR/>Hmm, as I think on it, I think we did try something with the orange one.<BR/>As I continue to think--bad, bad move-- should that be Allis-Chalmers? Dang. I'm going to have to look.Leah J.

The tractor was confusing for someone who had never driven one before, except for that time you and I played around on your dad's old tractor - remember?the Bag Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17434610508260994331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8329622951839766826.post-40139983252610853142008-01-09T07:24:00.001-07:002008-01-09T07:24:00.001-07:00Hehehehe - guess they do that for those illiterate...Hehehehe - guess they do that for those illiterate itinerant farmers...the Bag Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17434610508260994331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8329622951839766826.post-68780662116823028212008-01-09T07:24:00.000-07:002008-01-09T07:24:00.000-07:00Good one, dfBag Lady.
