Got caught working yesterday

Richard G. · Jul 21, 2013

Was out cultivating my sweet sorghum patch yesterday and my son's girlfriend snapped this shot of me. I did not know she had done it till it showed up on Facebook.
1942 JD H and a very old looking man stooped over watching the cultivator.

Pretty cool picture. I thought it was a painting until I read the details.

Thanks, it does have that "painted look".

2 row? Thats what I run with a 1953 JD 60, I only have a few acre of corn but it is the most enjoyable time I spend. Love to listen to the soft pop of the tractor and think about my dad doing this with the same rig.

It is only one row. I plant one row at a time so I can only cultivate one row at a time. It is fun to hear the music of the 2 cylinder. You can see, it was hot and humid here yesterday as per the sweat on my shirt.

Neat Pic.

Looks like it could have been taken in 1947!!

Only thing that would make that picture look better would be if tractor was a red Farmall. The green Deere blends in with all the landscape.

ONLY KIDDING ! Seriously if that picture were mine I would enlarge it ,frame it, and hang it on wall.

Thanks for posting, Bill

Richard G. I hope you don't mind but it gave me an
idea and I let the computer "Paint" it some more.

Enjoy.

That's beautiful. Don't know which I like best- but I'm leaning toward your "painting". Amazing the effects you can get with computers these days.

Hey, I like that too. But it does make me look even older.

PS. After the storm and flood we had last night, I am almost afraid to go up to the sorghum patch this morning.
