B&T,

With so many edits I opted to read all them there replies before I decided to myself. Nice story and it is very solid. I imagine the tractor/mule lines have been changed. The do fit today's picture of the farmer and not selling the mules ties in nicely with the next two lines. On a personal note I'd like to mention that there are a couple of my relatives that still plow their tobacco fileds behind the mule. It almost seems to be an art of sorts, a comfortable way of life and way to keep in touch with their roots.

Way to go guys,
