my dad's john deere tractor

My dad got this tractor in 1969 when I was 12 years old. It is Steve's now and he needed to do some troubleshooting to get it working recently. Today, it started again! I heard the noise of the engine and went running out to celebrate with Steve. I also took some photos, of course. Once I got them on my computer, I played around and came up with this for my blip! 

The original photo is in the "extra" photos so you can compare with my tweaked version. Then I scoured around to find a pic of my dad on the John Deere and found this one of him with my son Decklin (now 36!) when he was a wee babe. Plus, a portrait of my dad, I believe when graduating high school, for good measure. xo
