Today I stopped to visit a big red Farmall M sitting along the road. It brings back so many memories of driving one in the summer during my teen years many years ago. I thought I would share some photos and memories with you.
My blood runs Farmall red
Filling my mind with memories
of days gone by so long ago
Back when fields were plowed
With three bottom plows
Turning over thick rich soil
Farmall red is a color full of life
Of roaring engines full of power
Days on the farm combining wheat
Shoveling it into the granary bins
Of lumbering Holstein cows
Coming down the lane udders full
Ready to be milked morning and night
Barn filled with the smell of hay
Silos filled with chopped corn fermenting
Big red Farmall tractors helping it happen
Yes, my memories run red… Farmall Red.
