Feeling Chillin'
Hearing birds singing outside
John Scalzi gave us this assignment:
"Your Monday Photo Shoot: Picture something in orange. As a challenge, don't take pictures of actual oranges (the fruit), and picturing actual pumpkins seems a little too easy too. Other than that, go for it."
Around here, when I think of orange, I think of Allis Chalmers tractors. Even though we sold our last Allis a couple of weeks ago, it's my personal favorite brand of tractor because many of my uncles farmed with Allis Chalmers' when I was growing up.
In this picture you see a tractor that was given to us by my Uncle Leo and restored by Cliff. It's still in the family; that's Uncle Leo's grandson, Brian, who bought it.
And here's the D-17, series IV Allis that was our workhorse for many years:
Is that enough orange for you, John?

Maybe I'll get around to doing this ORANGE thing ... D17 ... drove one for many years ... teased my husband that I loved him for his tractor ... think I put more hours on it than he did ... mostly baling hay. I drove an orange Schneider truck, too.
