cschannuth 3,795 #1 Posted October 2, 2016 I got the 701 out for a little exercise today and my daughter wanted to drive it. The goofball came down without shoes but I let her drive it anyway. Of course, in the video, as you will see, she wanted to know if it would go faster. She had a blast. IMG_3704.MOV IMG_3705.MOV 19 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My granddaughter just said yesterday when she seen the snowthrower mounted on front of my tractor and the progress I'm making doing my modifications that it may just make her want to go out and clear the snow with it. I'll believe it when I see it none of the females in this family want to go outside in the winter. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jdleach 525 #14 Posted October 4, 2016 My daughter is really a good kid, but a sort of "fashion plate". Cute as a button like cschannuth's girl, but you would never see her in sweats goofing around like her. She is all about clothes, styling, etc. Worked in retail clothing stores for several years now, and is now over apparel at the new Kroger Market Place here in town. Quite proud of her. Unfortunately, anything mechanical just leaves her cold. I must of done something wrong when she was little, and I let her play in my machine shop. Took her to work with me almost everyday till she started school. Had a little play area in the office, but she could come out on the floor whenever we weren't doing anything dangerous, and she could be adequately supervised. Wife was the secretary, and my feeling was that it would be a good idea for her to be around her parents all the time instead of at a daycare. I suppose all the time she spent with us resulted in a close relationship, as she comes by almost every evening, and will even go to the occasional tractor show with me (mostly for the food and craft crap). But start talking about lathes, mills, Wheel Horses, Farmalls, etc., and her eyes glaze over. Talk long enough, and she begins snoring. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
