Fathers Day to all of you out there who deserve it. Being a father is rewarding and a big responsibility and a lot of fun AFTER they are past those teenage years.  ------------- "Allis-Express" 19?? WC / 1941 C / 1952 CA / 1956 WD45 / 1957 WD45 / 1958 D-17 |

Tyler, you better enjoy it while you can. 😁 The way you and your wife are raising those two sweethearts you shouldn’t have too much trouble. Our pastor preached a great sermon today on the responsibilities of being a father. Hope all you dads had a great day today and if you are blessed to still have your dad you spent some time with him. ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |

| Thanks Ted. Been a dad just over a year and we went on our first tractor ride together today. Put her on the seat of the C and seemed content, so fired up with some earmuffs on and away we went. |

| Ha! Working, trying to keep a wife happy, trying to get something going for myself on the farm, and a peeing on fires once in a while keeps a guy busy, plus one little one, and I get to sleep a little every night. Everyone but my bride has wanted number 2 since number 1. More help on the farm would be great! |

Just tell her everybody needs a partner in crime 😁. People always ask us "when is #3 coming?". I tell them the reason we have 2 is because we don't want 3 ------------- "Farming is a business that makes a Las Vegas craps table look like a regular paycheck" Ronald Reagan |

Shameless, you are approved. There are a LOT of step fathers out there and a bunch of em are better than their real fathers. Mike, I'm giving my Great Grand Kids rides every chance I get. Got one boy on Saturday on the WD45 and let him drive. He's 6 and LOVES tractors. His dad's a semi truck driver but Mason loves tractors. He was happy as all get out. I never thought about getting a picture. Next time... ------------- "Allis-Express" 19?? WC / 1941 C / 1952 CA / 1956 WD45 / 1957 WD45 / 1958 D-17 |

Boy, that partner in crime... I don't know if I could handle what my brother and me put a lot of people through! Chask, you would have to take a number, many have offered before also, lol! Ted, I probably wouldn't be the guy I am today if I didn't have the opportunity for a tractor ride when I was little. I can remember riding with dad green chopping and raking hay more than once. I know some would frown on giving a kid a ride, but safely done, it can inspire a kid. Shameless, sorry to hear that. I'm guessing that you are that "uncle" everyone has. Pulling shenanigans and giving life lessons at the same time. I am lucky to have more than one of those guys when growing up, and my folks just "enjoyed" when I learned something new from one of them! |
