On the recent trip to deliver a tractor to IA, my brother, David, rode along. Theoretically he's retired after selling his farm to his son. In reality father and son just traded positions and he now works for his son. Corn planting hadn't begun so he had the leisure to accompany me.
It was a treat to have that much time with him. It will be no surprise to some of you that we felt no need to talk all the time. It was a 280 mile round trip with additional time loading and unloading. Family and friends...the bonds grow deeper with age.
