IMG_2500 Wic # 66 - Machine ...

'Weekly Challenge: "Machine".
Machines of many types surround us and our daily lives are not possible without them. Show us some machines that you see.
“A sentence should contain no unnecessary words,
a paragraph no unnecessary sentences,
for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. ”
William Strunk, Jr.'


This David Brown was the first Farm tractor 'machine' my hubby purchased new back then.
Since then, my hubby loves and prefers John Deere.

To start this David Brown, it has to be placed on the barn hill to start
and so it's parking space is there.

Used for spraying the crops back then.

We take them for granted, but how many machines can truly boast of helping feed a continent?

Love these old machines...I learned to drive on an old John Deere. Great story
and great image for this challenge. - Racine

Sometimes the old farm tractor became part of the family - well, it did on my sister's farm...

A machine that has gotten many years of usage. Nicely photographed. It looks like it has personality.

Great to have an old machine like that; I recall push starting a car many times.

Great choice, well shot and who said that machines don't have personalities? Reading your description, I realize it must be well over thirty-five years sine I push started a car.

Lots of character in that machine.
