Scotty: I had to use my Super A and trailer to haul in the first crop of pumpkins, this year so I have found another use. In all these years of gardening I have never grown pumpkins. My 12 foot trailer was fully loaded. A few years back, my son Sandy was working for a Christmas tree grower. My brother Frank asked him to find him a real broad Christmas tree. I was going to be in the area with my trailer so agreed to haul this home to Frank. It hung over both sides of my trailer, had limbs on it 1-1/4" in diameter. I couldn't understand how Frank would ever get this tree in the house. Sure enough at Christmas it was in the house and nicely decorated. When asked how he got this tree in Frank would only say he ran a rope right through the house and out the bedroom window and hooked his Farmall 230 on to pull it through the door. We did ask him how many times the rope broke and where Marion (his wife) was when the rope broke. I still think he was pulling our leg, but Frank is an electrician and always was the member of the family to mastermind ingenius ideas.
