I just don't have it in me to fight with anybody else today. When I went to take the rake a quarter mile down the road just before this incident,I just wanted to go that little way to another field without having to fold it and unfold it again manually. It's a gravel road,narrow for that quarter mile with trees and brush on both sides but opens right up again where the field is. I got about two thirds of the way and here comes a car,hell bent for leather. I wave my arms,get farther over to my left and try to stop him in the open. Nope,he came about a hundred feet in to the trees and then stopped. If looks would kill,we would both be dead right now.
After the whole thing with them driving in the field,I took the pickup to check the first field I raked to see if it was ready to bale. There went a 4 wheeler across that field. A kid riding with another kid on the back holding a shot gun in the air. He rode down then right crossways over the windrows. I knew who it was. His dad was right out there in the yard. As ticked as I was,I knew better than start something with him and his stupid kid. Somebody definitely would have gotten hurt.
I headed up with the baler. There was another narrow stretch of gravel road around the end of a lake,brush on both sides,blind curve,here comes a little red S10 doing at least 50. I jammed both brakes and steered toward the edge of the road. He was going so fast he couldn't even react. He just shot right past me. I could see all the way to 66 where he'd been flooring it and spinning the tires as far as he could,then he'd let off and do it again.
I told Kim when I got home that if I had to even leave the yard again today,somebody was gonna die. So,I just left it alone. One of those jokers would have shot me in self defense or I would have been in jail myself.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
