Memories of an Old Tractor

When I think of country living, I think of farms and tractors. What comes to your mind? I grew up on a farm and we had a John Deer tractor similar to the one below. 

My Dad use to give us rides on it when we were little and as we got older, we were taught how to drive it. We thought it was the best thing to do and use to beg our Dad to let us drive the tractor.

This old tractor has been preserved and sits in the front yard of my neighbor's yard. They don't live in the country or on a farm, but have about 2 acres of land. You can see their horse barn in the background. Can you believe that we live about 15 minutes from Ft. Lauderdale? Maybe not what you expected. 

Next to this John Deer is an old Ford tractor.

Both tractors are well preserved for their age. You can see the sidewalk in front of their house where we ride our golf cart.

I love seeing these tractors since they remind me of when I was young. I know they still run, since he moves them around to cut grass and then puts them back. What fun!

Do you have any farm, tractor or country memories? Did you ever get to drive a tractor?
