Farm Gal here,
SHH and I went out for burritos (the authentic kind) on Friday and did something very farm-esk.  We took the local farm paper; you know the kind that sells hogs, hay and tractors, and we were pouring over it like it was the JCPenneys catalog at Christmas time!  Guess what we were looking for?  Yep, a tractor.  So we saw an ad for a Farmall M http://www.tractordata.com/farm-tractors/000/2/9/291-farmall-m.html  beautiful isn't she?

That is what our tractor looked like in her "hay-day".

This is what our tractor looks like now.

Before you get all, "what a hunk of junk" on us keep the following things in mind.
1.  We paid cash for it!  So it really is ours.
2.  It runs...really well.
4. We will be scooping manure with it.
3. We all age like this...it's not the tractors fault.

Here is a photo of me driving the tractor...

Here is a photo of me trying to shift the tractor...

And one last photo of me killing the tractor...

So there you go...the new tractor!  Never a dull moment!
