| IN 1954, My Dad bought a new NAA Ford(yes, it was a Golden Jubilee!). The delivery man unloaded it off of his truck and parked it in the yard. My dad put me on it, showed me the finer details of starting and stopping and where I could go with it. Then He turned me loose! All around the barn, out the lane and back (1/2 mile), down to the stream-ANYWHERE! Boy, was I in seventh heaven! I can still hear the delivery man protesting me driving a tractor! Looking back now, I guess he was! I was almost 6 years old! James West (Jim from Stonepile), from MD, entered 1999-12-19 |
