This week there was a tragic tractor accident in the small town of Westminster in North Central Massachusetts. A retired gentleman "71" was killed when he was doing what he loved, pulling logs out of the woods with his tractor. Somehow the tractor rolled on top of him and was pinned. he was working alone and when somebody realized he"d been gone for to long a time, it was to late. Sounds to me as though the tractor wheel rolled over him when he got off with it running or the park brake didn"t hold, or who knows what. Probably been doin it that way for years. I didn"t know the man well, but I knew him. Very smart, kind person whow helped alot of people. He was a Powerplant engineer for many years. And working with wood and his tractor was his past-time. Very tragic accicident. I wouldn"t want to have been the one who had to find him. I couldn"t imagine going through that. Remember to be carefull out there especially when working alone, and think about the person that might have to come looking for you. Jim K
