A-Z Challenge: T is for...

TRACTORS.  I love TRACTORS and enjoy getting to opperate them every chance I get. When I was in college I worked for the Agricultural Research Service and various parts of my job required me to use tractors to conduct studies.
This is a potato harvester, we did irrigation research on a field of "chipper" potatoes that were contracted with Frito Lay

I enjoy visiting my in-laws farm in Iowa and my father-in-law lets me help with the chores.
I thought I had one of me driving a tractor, but couldn't find it



Also when I was in college I went with two of my sorority sisters to Denver to a Kenny Chesney concert at the Grizzly Rose.  He played his new single "She Thinks My Tractors Sexy" which hadn't been release on the radio yet.  We thought it was so great that we took a 20 mile detour on the already 65 mile way home so that we could go to a 24 hour Walmart to buy his new album for that song.

  1. Cool tractors! I photograph tractors from time to time, but not that big or that close!

  2. I like them, too! The little farm we visit in the fall, has an old antique one for the kids to play on. And we got cute pics of Waylon sitting on a tire, when we went to the Houston Rodeo.
