YESTERDAY, WHEN I PULLED OFF HIGHWAY 61 TO GO TO
FULTON, THIS IS WHAT
I SAW DRIVING INTO TOWN.
IN THE BACKGROUND IS
THE HOME OF MILO AND
LAUREL BAKER AND AS YOU
SEE HERE, THEIR DRIVEWAY
IS LINED WITH VINTAGE
IH AND JOHN DEERE TRACTORS, ALL RESTORED
BY MILO. AND HE HAS OTHERS TOO. MILO WASN'T HOME BUT LAUREL CAME OUT TO VISIT AND EXPLAIN
THAT THESE TRACTORS ARE LINED-UP EVERY SUNDAY MORNING AND
REMAIN THERE UNTIL LATE IN THE DAY, AND ARE VISABLE FROM
THE HIGHWAY. MANY CARS STOP IN TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AND YOU
CAN TOO. THE BAKERS HAVE FARMED IN THE AREA FOR OVER 40 YEARS
AND MILO HAS BEEN RESTORING TRACTORS ABOUT AS LONG, OR LONGER.
CLICK-ON PHOTO TO ENLARGE IT.
