Iowa Tractor Boys

The "Hunt"

The Hunt in Colorado for this Young Iowa Tractor Boy was very productive. This Tractor Boy is employed by the John Deere Corporation in Moline, IL.

He is also involved in a Farm Operation in Clayton, County. As everyone can appreciate, even Iowa Tractor Boys need a break from the routine. In an earlier post to this Blog you saw younger Iowa Tractor Boys with the results from their Pumpkin Hunt. Here you have the opportunity to view the results of "Bigger Boys" and their Hunt in Colorado.

Young Iowa Tractor Boys

These Young Iowa Tractor Boys are enjoying the Pumpkin Harvest in Clayton County, Iowa. There Dad has just acquired the new John Deere Gator and everyone is putting it to good use. If you look close you will also note that the Tractor Boy standing is an avid "Packers Fan."

Now reflecting back, I, as a Former Iowa Tractor Boy have fond memories of the Annual Pumpkin Harvest. We did not have Gators, but we did use farm wagons and in some cases wheelbarrows.

Hay Making Time

Iowa Tractor Boys

I know that I loaded these pictures in the incorrect order. However, if you scroll to the bottom of this post and then upward you will be able to see the process of handling the large round bales of Hay.

The Green Tractor and the Hemi Ram complete this series of images. Making Hay has certainly progressed since I was an Iowa Farm Boy back in the late 1950s.
