Sydney And the Tractor

The Misses has been handling most of the chores on the farm for the past few days. Sydney wanted to spend some time with Mardi, so she brought her along to hay the cattle.

Some of you may think that this is some sort of child abuse, but it is just a fact of life living on the farm that you learn to drive when you are 5, in some cases, even earlier. I have been letting Sydney drive my truck; just up the dirt road to the fields, and to the house, not actually on the street, and so Mardi thought she would let Sydney drive the tractor today.

Drove my first tractor at 3.

Yep, everybody in my neck of the woods was pretty much driving a tractor, or doing some kind of farm work by the time they were in first grade.
