What a great day!!!!!!! Temp in the uper 70's, no wind and bright sunshine, not a cloud in the sky. Son drove down about 70 miles just to have breakfast with me. Rest of the children to far away but all called. This afternoon I got one of the little A's out an took it for a spin around the neighborhood. About 5 miles total. Stopped at two neighbors to visit. (everybody was outside doing things) Another guy stoped me and wanted to know all about the A. A young gal with her grandfather in the car, who was 91 followed me in the drive at the barns. His eyes were still good, he new it was an A just like the one he had. He told his granddaughter all about how it was when he had one. I ask him if he would like to take it for a spin. At first he turned me down. I told him I would get out a step ladder so he could get on and that I would ride(stand)on the drawbar just to make sure it didn't get away from him. He finally agreed and we took about a 5 minute ride in the hay field next to the barns. When they drove off he was still telling the granddaughter all about how it use to be in his day. It really made my day and I am sure his too. IT JUST DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS
