| | Thanks everyone. Just got back from her house. Couldn't sleep. So I went over to get things going. Never knew she had so many tractor related items.She has just about every tractor made in some form or the other. I even found her old china berry switch.When we were kids and got into trouble. She wouldn't punish you right away. She would make you wait. Then out of nowhere she would pop you with it. Got me one morning when my ears were cold.She popped me on the ear. I thought I was going to die. She never went overboard with the punishment. We got away with more than we should have. But if she gave you that look and reached for the switch. You knew you were in trouble. I think the waiting was worse than the switch. Well gotta go. Long ride to Tyler to bring her home.
