Been Farmin' Long?



Peyton and new BFF Hunter rode Hunter's Peg Perego John Deere Gator all over Hunter's farm today. The property is pretty extensive. Three year old H-dog drove 20 month old P-dog over hills, up the sides of valleys, down into ravines and out again all without too many near misses. And nobody worried. All the adults stood around and laughed and laughed without a care in the world like it was 1973 and seatbelts, helmets and knee pads were still a pipe dream. We probably should have feigned some concern, but hey, my parents let me ride farm machinery and such at their ages, not to mention all my childhood winter sledding memories involve a 20 foot length of rope and an international pickup truck. It's a miracle I made it to 40!

Nice try - tryin' to butch up young Peyton after that pathetic episode with the hair bows. We know your game...
