Back in the day I had 4 acres of blackberrys and my young son learned to cultivate and drive the tractor, pulling the sprayer while I stood on the back and did the spraying. We only ran in first gear and I had bolted 2x4's to the clutch and brakes so he could reach the peddles.One weekend my brother came up from LA (city slickers)with his three kids and we were in the back yard drinking a few beers when the kids asked if they could drive the old Falcon station wagon I was trying to sell,around the berry field. The battery was dead and it was a '3 on the tree', and figuring they would never be able to start it, I told them to go ahead, if they could start it they could drive it. Long story shortened, 2 hours later all 5 of them learned to jump start a car and drive as well.. Today they are all in thier 50's and have never quit thanking me for the fun they had that day!! My wife, likewise reminds me how stupid I was to let them do it... Good Times!! Lucky ones to!!
