Well I have been a John Deere man for a long time. My grandpa got me started a long time ago. Anyhow last year I joined the northern Indiana Two Cylinder Club.

I thought someone would "quote" take me under their wing and teach me the ropes and what not. But nobody even seems interested in talking to me at the monthly meetings. Most older folk I know are estatic when they find out that a young squirt like me is interested in somthing they grew up with. I am tempted to just quit, the gas money I spent to go to the meetings and the time would be much better spent at home working in the tractor shop.
