My 14 year old Grandson came over last weekend, got a few out!

[Hammerhead 817]

My Grandson came over last weekend and we fired up his 1962 Bolens 600 and did some work on it too. Then we took it and my 875 out in the woods for some Papaw time! We thrashed them around for a while and then his recently added 1964 Bolens hood rubbed against the generator pulley and sparks went flying so he shut it off pretty quickly! He was trained on safety issues from me at an early age. Then I backed up out of the creek bed and he pointed to my rear tire and it had popped off the rim and was toast! So I limped it back to the garage and hopped on my trusty mule tractor, a 704 and went back out to tow him back up to the garage for repairs! All in all a good day with my boy, errr, young man! We tore up both of our thrasher machines! Wahooooo! Keith

Few things more fun than Wheel Horsing around with the kids.

Brings back many fond memories of my buddies and myself swamping our tractors thru the stream almost 35 yrs. ago. We didn't ruin anything good, these old Wheel Horse round hoods were as rare as Hens teeth here in CT. back then! No internet then.........

I wonder how they'd feel about a reunion?

sounds like a good time and of coarse a horse had to pull the bolens home

That is what I would call quality father and son time! My older boys, and I take our little off road buggies out, and it never fails to be loads of fun with the kids.
