CCAMA at Cotton Days- Washington, Utah

It was cold dark and windy in Cedar City. On the Way to Cotton Days I saw the dark clouds end and the blue sky begin. You couldn't ask for better weather for our tractor pull. Washington, Utah had beautiful weather.

First Time Driver-Test &Tune 2017

Nicholas Hall First tractor pull at the CCAMA
Test &Tune

Today on CCAMA we are featuring Nicholas Hall.

Nicholas is 10 years old and he is a natural. I wish you all could have been there to see him drive.

His parents Andrew and Kristin Hall were there to sign him up before the tractor pulls began.

Everyone needs to know the safety rules so Paul Moen gives Nicholas the run down. Nicholas listens carefully...

Nicholas gets a thumbs up for learning the safety rules.

I do wish you all could have seen Nicholas drive the Case DC.
But if you did't get to see him here is a clip of his first pull.

WORDS WE CAN LIVE BY FROM AN OLD FARMER

Words we can live by
www.ccama.blogspot.com

“Your fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight and bull-strong.”

“Keep skunks and bankers at a distance.”
“Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.”
“A bumble bee is considerably faster than a John Deere tractor.”
“Words that soak into your ears are whispered…....not yelled.”
“Meanness don't just happen overnight.”

“Forgive your enemies; it messes up their heads.”
“Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.”
“It don't take a very big person to carry a grudge.”
“You cannot unsay a cruel word.”
“Every path has a few puddles.”

“When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.”
“The best sermons are lived, not preached.”
“Most of the stuff people worry about, ain't never gonna happen anyway.”
“Don't judge folks by their relatives.
“Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.”

“Live a good and honorable life, then when you get older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.
“Don't interfere with somethin' that ain't bothering you none.”
“Timin' has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.”
“If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.”
“Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.

“The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever have to deal with, watches you from the mirror every mornin'.”
“Always drink upstream from the herd.”
“Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.”
“Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in.”
“If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around.”
“Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly, and leave the rest to God.”

“Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.”

Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly.

Vintage Tractor Caravan To The Sheep Parade

Vintage tractor caravan to Main St for the sheep parade in Cedar City, Utah

The tractors were lined up at the Diamond Arena in Cedar City and the flags on our tractors were waving in the breezes.

I rode tandem on my husband's Allis Chalmers while making this caravan video to Main St. There is nothing like being in a tractor caravan with the roar of the engines, the morning sun spilling over the mountain and the sight of rabbit bush on the side of the road luminous with sunlight.

I had always stayed back and photographed from the curb but this time I got to ride in the Sheep Parade.

Here is the link to the video.
