If anyone knows my Gramps, they know there is only one thing in this world he loves more than me...and that is John Deere tractors! He is a farm boy at heart, born and raised on farms in Southern Missouri. He has plenty of stories of smashing the eggs in the pail so he could get pile more in! And no matter what he tells you, he is a bit of a horse whisperer! He has broke more horses than I have hair (wait...that's not that many). But most importantly, he loves his old John Deere tractors! Green and yellow is his life! He has two of them right now in our barn and I think his will gives one each to Mom and Uncle Eric. What they will do with them, who knows? Probably keep them in Gramps memory. This isn't one of Gramps, but it's one he thought about buying. It's the only photo of a Deere I have.... And his look just like this.
But Gramps must be trying to keep me in the John Deere spirit, because I already have my first John Deere toy! Gramps better be careful or I will take these keys up the barn and start up the "putt putt" noise machines!
