My Great Grandpa Rush Bullis had some sort of business arraignment with McCormick-Deering, so everything on the farm was Red. He sold them several patents for early hay balers. I didn't even know there were other kinds of tractors until I was around ten.

Between 6th grade and 'that special girl', I was rebuilding hit and miss farm engines and old tractors. I have soft spot for a 1937 JD 'A' that I bought for $10 in 1970 and sold for $90 in 1974. The gent I sold it to still shows it, almost 40 years later. Same amount of time I've been with 'that special girl'.

Yep, MICRider, I miss the farm, but I couldn't walk to my favorite cup of coffee, then, like I can now.
