My father and I never got along very well. From the time I was just a tyke he whooped me a lot. More than my brother and sisters. Just didn't like each other I guess. But I had a pretty good mechanical apptitude and was always somehow able to get things to run. And I overhauled a couple of his tractors over the years. One in high school. Another when I got out of the Navy. And another when I came back to MN after being out west for a few years.We didn't see much of each other in his final years and when we did we usually locked horns. Once about 3 years ago I saw him and we kind of started getting into it and he told me he'd written his will and I wasn't going to get anything. I blew up at him and told him I didn't want or need his damn stuff. Then about a month later I saw him again and he kind of asked me if I would have a look at his tractor because it wouldn't start. And I got mad again and told him that all those years I had fixed his damned tractors and wasn't even going to get one. But I changed the points in it and got it running again anyway. Then I didn't see him much at all after that. But when he died last February I was notified that I was in his will. He gave everything to my brother and sisters. But the 2N Ford he left to me.
