[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 3880998, member: 27991"] Very cool I moved into my Grandparents house, several years after Grandma passed. Cleaning up, I found a bank payment book where Papa had borrowed $17.50 for a YEAR, in 1933, to buy a tractor tire. He was 25 yo, a roughneck, working the night shift on the rig and farming cotton during the day. Had a new baby. Had just gotten a used tractor and rebuilt the motor. He had been plowing with mules. They were married in Oct 1929, 2 weeks before the crash. They were a different breed than today's 20 somethings. [/QUOTE]
