gotta love the old masseys! I had 2 1964's at a club I worked at 15ish years ago....longer and pretty low to the ground. had the "suicide knobs" on em too. No brakes, ofc.... After a bad storm, I was pushing downed trees into a 20 ft drop-off/creek. in the lowest of gears, since there were no brakes.... if I were to get too close to the edge, I thought I'd just turn the key off or drop the clutch to stop. nope! since I was in such a low gear, it sputtered instead of dying... going all the way over! hahahahaha! barely jumped off in time.... and made another guy climb down to "steer" as it was pulled back out by a backhoe. Too funny! I was shaking like a leaf at the time. had to be there to appreciate the whole scenario....

That is a funny story Kurt,I wasn't sure if you used Massey's or not but I figured you did. I wasn't expecting a funny if not somewhat scary story though. Happy New Year buddy.:)

What can I say? It's all been said above. Great puzzle, great story.
#7: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Dec 31, 2012
Thx Teresa and Norma. I just want to say,I think of all of you as my second family,Ok actually my third family,because my family now is my second family. My first family doesn't even talk to me,because I'm with my second family.Anyway I want to wish you all a Happy New Year.:)

Life sometimes gets complicated, doesn't it Aldege.? This is our family away from our family, All of whom I also wish to have a great and prosperous new year.

Yes it does get complicated Norma. Someday my son and daughter will get over the fact that my wife Niki is younger than they are. We can't always chose who we fall in love with,fate comes into play at times. I also wish for everyone in our WEBPBN family a great and prosperous year,and above all try to enjoy life.:)

I kept seeing a set of drums and couldn't understand Kurt's story.
I'm now on the floor laughing!
#13: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Jan 2, 2013
That's hilarious Jota.:)

As I was solving I saw a bicycle, then drums, then a train, then finally a tractor. :)
#15: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Jan 3, 2013
Lol,I could see drums. Thx Kristen.:)

I loved solving this. Just as I thought there was no way to go, I found another clue. I enjoyed watching the picture take shape.
