Good mooooooooorning!!!! I thought i would enter this months challenge as well so i went for a drive yesterday morning and took this shot of a tractor...of course with some mist behind it, lol. When i was just a kid, i used to help out my best friends dad bringing in the hay and helping out at their farm. I always thought it was soooo cool that i got to drive one of these things wat the age of 10 when all my other friends didnt even get permission to drive their parents lawn-mower, lol. So thats my little nostalgia-trip for ya. Have a wonderful weekend!!!!!! Andreas #:O)

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

g'day Zacko, grew up on a small farm in louisiana, so can relate to this one...funny we learned to drive these and boats long before cars and if you got hurt, lawsuits weren't an issue, you mended up and tried not to mess up again...
