I am, on the one hand, against factory farms, and a bit suspicious of too much machinery but have a bit of a soft spot for John Deere, as old U.S. company. <br /><br />All so complex!

I drove ours in the field during hay season by the time I was twelve. Far easier workb than loading the bales onto the trailer, but still a hot and dusty job. <br /><br />Thanks for the memories and some morning smiles.Grandma's Goulashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02650355088038245450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6360427196522365144.post-65413129356192286802012-10-18T10:18:18.293-06:002012-10-18T10:18:18.293-06:00I so love this, especially your comments following...I so love this, especially your comments following...........you are so hilarious!Sherry Blue Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769154286598233146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6360427196522365144.post-85616725476620163122012-10-18T09:39:50.037-06:002012-10-18T09:39:50.037-06:00This is really cute!This is really cute!Maude Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669688074743095866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6360427196522365144.post-66142899871758012012-10-18T09:25:24.348-06:002012-10-18T09:25:24.348-06:00Green was the colour sported by my Dad's farm ...Green was the colour sported by my Dad's farm machinery.
