Seriously, I think that explains my draw to old things. Grandpa Pickens(Elmer), milked by hand, and didn't like tractors. Still used his team of draft horses, Bill and Bob, to cut and rake hay. Have memories of riding on the horse drawn equipment with him (no, I'm not Amish) Mills, I am sure he will never forget his time there.

Harold, you had a unique experience being involved with horse drawn farm work. My grandfather kept his work mules long after acquiring a tractor. I remember as a little guy climbing up Pete's front leg, using his knee as a foot hold until I could reach the hames and hoist myself up. I spent many an hour perched atop Pete talking to him while he worked. He seemed to understand my youthful gibberish too. After all these years I still cherish those days and your son, Mills will do the same.

Apparently they went coon hunting with some friends and treed two coons, but then discovered they forgot to bring the bullets. Doh!
