Here is an aerial picture of a nearby tractor junkyard. If I have posted this one before sorry.
It has all the tractors grouped by color and is a very pretty site from the air.

An even better name would be Toys 4 Boys. Got to love the large amount of orange.

My kind of play pen.

That is just too organized! Must be a woman in charge./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Jinman, Now that you mention it, you could be right. Maybe it's where the previous owners wives put them after the divorce proceedings.

Unfortunately even with all that orange, there is very little in the way of Kubota down there. Most of that orange is rusted red (which appears orange) and even rusted green with some orange Farmall and orange Massey I think mixed in. Drats.

Yeah, once spotting that from the air I went hoping to finds some Kubota bargains but alas they were few. Honestly, most of the stuff down there is older than me, went it wound up in the junk yard but I still thought it was pretty--it was never intended to ignite a color war. When most of that stuff was built Kubota was probably not yet a force in this country, maybe 40 years from now there will be a Kubota section--yipee--well--I guess I can scoot around on my Lark and look and dream of when I was a young man with a new Kubota.

Color is not important, we all must maintain a moment of silence in memory of those fallen tractors and remember that ours (mine this fall) are running and looking good.

Color don't matter, when your with friends, and everyone with a tractor is a friend.

Yes, exactly MDNY, that is exactly the sensation, the emotion that wiped over my soul when I walked amongst the skeletons and remains of so many faithful companions layed low by time and obsolesence--not the observation that yet young Kubotas have not made their way there but the awe of so many fallen tractors. Once some ones pride and joy now layed bare to me by the ravages of time, an Elephants Graveyard but for tractors, their owners likely long since having befallen the same fate and so shall I and you and our tractors--- so say the crows.
