The tractor originally belonged to DH's uncle, his cousin gave it to him and he completely refurbished it.

    DH has a bigger tractor, maybe next year.......
    This must be Eastern WA.

    Looks like you were having fun there!
    Still have my Grandad's Ford tractor from the 50's and still using it! But use the Ferguson tractor the most...i don't drive it but Gs loves the excuse the "property needs mowing or plowing" to drive it. LOL

    I used to live in Kennewick, and remember the lack of trees the most. I am originally from Vancouver, so lack of trees is an aversion to me.Trees are normal, desert is not. :lol: :thumbup:
