My little tractor buddy, Grandson Carter, and his family arrived here at the farm from Durhan, NC just about dinner time today. Even though it was pretty chilly out, Carter wanted to head out to the barn right after dinner. We started out small, with the MF 16. Today he mastered starting and stopping movement with the Hydro lever on the MF 16. Papaw still stays a few quick paces away just in case. :-)
Then we moved on to something a bit more substantial - The MF 1150. This was his first ride 'n drive on this tractor since that wasn't feasible when it had the old Full Vision cab on it... We took it for a nice ride out through the field before calling it an evening.
They are prediciting 90% chance of rain tomorrow, so probably good that we got these rides this evening!
