Where were you when th eworld stopped turning....?
Sadly I remember is like it was yesterday. Back then I was mowing with a John Deere 314...or 312
I had just driven my kids to the farm on the deadend road before school. We were planning to and did moved there on September 15th 2001. I thought to myself of how peaceful and quiet it was there. I then dropped the kids off at school, I was turning onto main street coming to work when my wife called and said it appears a plane hit the World Trade Center. I came into work went right into our President's office and told him the news. I was watching TV when the second plane hit the other tower.
We had 15-20 guys from across the US here at work for a training seminar, each of them had to figure out a way to get home. It was like the movie planes trans, and automobiles - except no planes.
One guy from Hawaii was going to help me move on Saturday if the planes had not started flying by then. On Thursday of that week he and I drove out to the farm I was renting and he stated, "You could piss in the front yard and no one would notice." He called me 2 days ago and true to form, as always, he asked if I was pissin in the front yard....
After moving there I acquired a Farmall H, then 2 years later I built a house and found the H to be too big so we sold it and bought a 127...
