Does Millie chase you, or do you chase Millie?

She's like all other dogs.....has to lead, LOL Then occasionally takes off into the bush chasing squirrels then flies out like lightning in front of me again. That's why her tongue is out panting in every picture. She's full of energy. LOL

Reminds me of the Allis grandpa had. My first tractor memory was riding on his lap on his Allis. He had 2 other tractors, but drove Allis most often. His youngest daughter (of 7) is named Alice. Not sure if he named her after his tractor, but it probably had some influence.

You never know eh, LOL

AC's were pretty good tractors. Even these little CA's pull above their weight class. And it's so simple and basic.

Millie's tongue may be longer than the combined length of the Allis' steering shafts. 🤣

My daughter took some more pics today with her better camera. And I made some yard art with one of the old Allis rims. What you can't see is the other side where there is no rim left around the valve stem from the calcium, LOL

Fall Color already? We finally dropped into the 60's at night, but it's still in the 80's during the day and I'm still mowing the grass.

Thinking back to my younger days, decades ago, I fondly remember taking Alice for a ride in the backseat of my dad's Merc. She had excellent brakes as well and smelled good too....:D
