We had a Honda 50 motor bike with a 3 speed trans. We used to pull people without snow or sled! They would hold on to the little bar on the back while me and my brother rode the bike. Where have the good ole days gone?!

You know, they are always busting these kids for skateboarding and stuff. That's the least thing they should be worried about. Stupid lawsuits have everyone scared.

It's very good in low light situations that come up often for work, such as inside of empty grain bins. I don't know enough about photography to go to anything better than a point-and-shoot type camera. Besides, this camera is about as expensive as I'm willing to go and still drag it along into dirty dusty inspections.

My brother and I loved Thomas when we were kids too. To this day I enjoy how they used little electric trains to make it come to life.

We often tie a toboggan behind a pickup or a tractor for "lazy man" sledding. We've used tractor inner tubes and 4-wheelers before. That can get pretty exciting when a drain terrace sneaks up on you! People go flying! Good thing snow helps cushion frozen ground and we were smart enough to be wearing helmets that time.

We've gone mattress surfing behind 4-wheelers in the summer time...
One time when we were kids we went to the neighbors and tied a blue tarp behind the 4 wheeler and headed out to the alfalfa field. That ended when somebodies rear end sunk into a pivot track and the tarp eyelets tore out. There sure was a lot of laughter!

Downhill skis behind a snowmobile is quite fun too. A good length of baler twine say 20 or 30 feet and a small cross stick to hang onto is all you need. An old pounder that tops out at 30 or 40 mile an hour is just perfect for it
