My father passed on when I was 12 so we moved into town from a large farm in Iowa owned by 4 brothers. My father was herdsman for Woodland Farms. Some of the owners sons were younger than me; however, they got to drive tractors- back then, the tractors were a lot smaller than they are today. Anyway, I have had driving a tractor on my bucket list till just this past week.
Fortunately, my latest trip to the Midwest included dinner at my cousin’s farm. Before I arrived, I shared with Steve my desire to drive a tractor. Thus, he had the one pictured above handy for me to drive- of course, he was in the cab with me.
This experience reminded me to be an opportunist & always be open to new experiences; especially, those on your bucket list. Thus, you can transfer it to your chuck-it list.
