The other day I stopped by the John Deere tractor store to buy some oil and a filter for my tractor, better known as Grandpa's tractor. There are so many interesting items to look at in the store and outside too. Tractors of all sizes, utility vehicles, riding lawn mowers, all kinds of implements and attachments for tractors. I felt like a kid in a toy store, it reminded me of Zumwalt's Equipment store in the small farming town of Willows, where I grew up in northern California. Whenever I had any extra money earned from seasonal farm jobs I would spend it on hand tools purchased from Zumwalt's. Many of those tools from 60 to 65 years ago I still have and use. When the grandkids were here last summer we all had a good time on the tractor, not sure who had more fun, the grandkids or grandpa.
You need to take your GrandKids to Tractor Supply when they visit again. It is something they will always remember doing with you.
