Ryker on the 1935 B
This is a favorite photo of mine. It’s my nephew on a 1935 John Deere B. You’d assume he is unhappy because his mother left him or something… But in reality, he was unhappy because he wanted to be on the 1938 John Deere B with rubber tires that was next to the steel-wheeled tractor…

Beautiful Star Valley Sunrise
This morning was a beautiful and cold March morning. Although not uncommon for March, having 5 degree weather for late March doesn’t always happen. I was privileged though to be able to enjoy this beautiful morning (being as it is a Saturday and I was not at work), and take a few photos to enjoy this Star…

Model A Photography Shoot
They say you should take photos of the things you enjoy and love. So, every now and then I take the tractors out and do some shooting. Here’s a few photos of the John Deere A and BW.

We Used to Get More Snow
Winter is starting to wind down with a few signs of spring starting to pop up. In other words, the road in front of my house that is usually covered with snow for about three months of the year is now bare. We still have quite a ways to go though before it is all…

Snowmobile Ride Up Stump Peek
A few weeks ago my sister and her husband came up for the weekend, and we were able to go on a quick snowmobile ride up Stump Peek. We had a lot of nice deep powder–the Polaris Dragon definitely had an advantage over the older 800 RMK.

Shuffling around the Classic JDs
I had to get something out from the back of the barn, and that meant pulling out all of the classic tractors… Since I had them all out on a cold wintery day, I thought that would be a good opportunity to get a quick little video of them running. What you can see is…

Christmas Season
Christmas was good to me this year. All of the family was up, and everyone seemed to have had a good time. Growing up my cousin and I both had toy pedal tractors. We had a lot of fun on them, and tried to take them everywhere. My little nephew (slightly under two) is currently…

Plowing with the 1947 John Deere A and No 55 H plow
less than 18 months ago this tractor was a ‘fence line tractor’. I dragged it down to the barn and the engine, brakes, and clutch were seized up. The radiator cap was gone and the cooling system was completely full a junk. A mouse nest was in one of the cylinders… I looked it over…
