As long as there are farm boys, there is hope

The town that I live in is, fortunately, still surrounded by a handful of farms that haven't been bought up by "developers" or "Multi-billionaire Auto Parts Magnates". Today I saw a lovely sight.

Big tractor rumbling through green light, and in the cab, dark haired young fella in a blue T-shirt. Must have been nice n warm in the cab of that tractor because he was wearing no coat. It's about -8C today. Nice arms too. He had a cellphone up to his ear. Ah, modern life.

He was not driving a John Deere but I will forgive him, because he was the real deal. How do I know? There was a plow hooked up to the back. He was really motoring too.

These guys are out plowing frozen fields. Oh my manly man heroes.
