Take a little trip, take a little trip...

Well, I've been waiting for a while to take a little trip up the road.  Going to see my friend @oldredrider in the morning.  Wish I had time to go on up and see @limited12, but it will have to be a quick day trip!  Gonna pick up a couple of new toys!  What better way to start a long weekend than with a horse rustling trip!!  I'll post some pics of my haul later tomorrow!  Good night, time for a little shut-eye!

Nope - too many ditches to cross on the farm:)  Just have to wait a little while to find out;)!  Two that I don't have examples of.  Gotta kick this horse habit.  I'm going to have to store these in a stable away from the rest of the herd.  Hope they don't get lonely when I get them home!

What a great morning for travel - NOT.  But boy have we had fun!  Gotta say @oldredrider is a great guy!  We spent a couple of hours talking.  Emory had a blast.  Might come back to get a few parts in December.  I'll post more pics later, but here here's the weather we were driving in.

I was referring to the song, because I thought you were (in the title for this thread). :think:

Don't , ding, ding we have a winner!!!  I just got home.  We're worn out, but had a great day!  I picked up a 68 lawn ranger that will be put to work mowing our yard and a C125.  I'm tickled with both and they run great!!!  Below are a couple pics I made when we picked them up.   Planning on visiting again in December to pick up a few more parts while we are in town for a dr appt.  @oldredrider and I have nicknamed the black hood Coyote Ugly since it's so ugly that I just can't help think she looks pretty good!

Well, it was late before I had a chance to get to our horses.  Emory wanted to drive the c-125.  His legs aren't quite long enough yet, but I let him ride in the flat in one of our fields.  He did well and had a ball!  He's driven it a lot more than I have.  I've got to say it is one of the best running and sounding kohlers I have.  With the Nelson muffler it just sounds plain mean.  Here are a few pics.  Please overlook the quality - it was late, getting dark,and I wasn't too steady!

Thanks guys!!!  Driving horses is doing more than anything else for his hand - he does it without even thinking about it!!

Well, I've been working the ole girls a little.  Mower the yard with the ranger and found out mowing the yard really can be fun!  Trimmed the bushes in front of the house and hauled off the brush with the c-125.  Made a day of work more enjoyable!  Emory even had to try out the ranger.
