My dad grew up on a Nebraska farm. Not long after my grandfather died, my dad retired and my parents moved to Arizona, taking along a lot of old farm equipment that wasn’t sold with the farm. This “lawn ornament” graces their front patio along with an old metal tractor seat. I like the dinosaur/sci-fi look of it.

This, that and the other thing 
I guess we have a bit the same “historical” background – have seen this kind of old farm equipment before, seen a lot… 🙂
Excellent idea, very well captured… 🙂
I like the detail photo. It’s fun to see these old pieces.
Hi Janet, fabulous photos of the old farm equipment. 😀
Loved seeing this, Janet. It definitely has a dinosaur look about it. 🙂
Believe it or believe it not J……..in MB’s very young days, MBs dad used a working horse to pull a plough in our largish vegetable garden to set potatoes, cabbages, etc, before we acquired a tractor. Assume that’s I plough I’m partially seeing? We later modified the plough to attach it to the tractor. Can remember one pre-tractor occasion, we borrowed a neighbour’s horse to do the ploughing. After doing about 2 ‘drills’ about 50M long each, the horse dropped stone dead in the garden. Not sure what explanation my dad was able to offer the neighbours! Regards.
I have good memories of being on the farm and “driving” the tractor, steering while my grandfather worked the pedals. There was no AC, not even an umbrella. It was a wonderful time. But farming is very, very hard work. Sorry about the horse. 🙂
Happy Easter, cuz.

Nice find. I like the detail shot.
When I visit my parents and sit in the sun on the front patio, it’s right there and I enjoy the details. Glad you do, too.
