My mom and aunt would get together to drink coffee, smoke a cig and paste stamps into the book.

In the 70s/80s both my grandmothers had washer and dryers like most, but each had a clothesline in the backyard. And each had a metal table with a manual clothes ringer attached on an end. They loved to dry things in the sun. I'm sure many here remember these or a version of a model. I'm not sure many kids today would know what this does.

I see your John Deere and raise you a Case.



Was driving one of these and/or an old JD 4020 when I was about 8 years old. Thought I was big shite with the Case because it had the fender radio to "blast" tunes from. Good times

Used to watch both of these land in and out of the Kaneohe MCAS as a kid. Sometimes, Dad was flying the helicopter.

Kids today will never know the struggle to see a nipple in all the squiggly lines.

Think the old man started with a IH616, then an 9910, then the 9930.


My dad had a 9920, then two 50’s, then three 9965’s and a 9970, and the first two years I was back full time we had three 9986’s. And I had grandfathers and uncles farming too. Everybody would pitch in back then if somebody needed help finishing up.

Those were the most fun times.

Now everybody’s dead or retired and we hire a custom guy that rolls in with 3-5 balers and wipes us out quick. They barely give us time to enjoy it. It’s bittersweet.

Yep, same her all my baws are dead. Dad got out on the cusp of Bt and RR.

Y’all had a big operation. We had plenty of time to enjoy it with one two-row, holy shite, even with a small operation.

Okay, now how were they able to claim separate BUT EQUAL with those fountains? One’s cold and the other is warm half of the year.


their's has a sink

It's just a photograph from a museum and I imagine the curators of the museum made them look so vastly different to further drive home how racist we were back then
