Go to QCOnline and click on Rock Island Argus. Front page has a picture and story, Plowing Up Memories. 82 year old with an oxygen bottle in his pocket being a young man again. Hope I'm that lucky, if I make it that long. Chris

A good day plowing does bring back the youth.

Now that brings back some memories. Dad was only 54 when he died, had 2 heartattacks before he was 50, and was in a weak state, but still loved to hop up on his M Farmall and just drive.Of course we had to help him on and off, but once he got up on there, he was good to go. I rode on the drawbar some just to make sure he was ok, but then just stepped off and let him ride around in the feild for a couple of hours. He seemed to be in a better mood for a few weeks after that, so when he started getting in one of his moods, we'd just pull out the M and let him ride..... ....

I lied to you all, just glanced at the paper again, and he is 88, not 82. Shows you how good my short term memory is. Sorry about that, Chris

Sorry, I'm not that computer literate. Google search The Rock Island Argus and you should be able to go right there, It's on the front page. Chris
