Water Boy

Tools and vehicles that make like on the farm a whole lot easier.

Beautiful and colorful image with a wonderful description Randy F/L

Great description, image, and colors! Love the 'Water Boy' name!

Brilliant, Randy!

Well, "Hello, Water Boy." My goodness you have many names! For the 1st 18 years of my life (before I got married to an Iowa "Town Boy"), I helped my Dad make many ingenious pieces of machinery . At age 5, I was out there helping. When I was very young, it was during World War 2 and there wasn't much help or anything else available. I really appreciate what you have done here. Every year my husband and I drove from California to Iowa, my husband bought me a new John Deere Tractor Toy (once I found out they existed) in Iowa. I have them placed around the house along with my collection of Cars! I love every thing about this photo, and your work! Thank you for your FEATURE of my "Visiting Quail" V/F

Wonderful capture of this awesome "Big Boy Toy", Randy! What magnificent gardens! Loved your story! L/F

Great description, I enjoyed reading it! Love your gardens! l/f

Randy, I enjoyed reading your about your creative ingenuity to get your plants watered!!! It's so sad but today the young generation would not have a clue!! Your place looks beautiful and so well manicured, reminds me of my younger days when I had my 10 acres and horses, sigh :))...fav/love

Surely got the visits along the highway, and lots of comments, and how did you do that type of thing, so am having it on display for our Annual Art Show and Garden Walk, in June, so people can see how to water, and get through a drought! Thanks much, Kay, as one has to have sense and a sense of humor surely helps! LOL

Lol....yes Randy you needed this! Great capture...v.f.

Thanks Sandi, and the nice thing is during a drought like last summer, it does the trick!

Thanks so much, Robert, for you unique and welcomed comment on this piece, as it is truly appreciated!

Thanks so much for your gracious comment, Patricia, and for your appreciation of what I am up to, when not on FAA!

Thanks so much, Bob, for your awesome input and comment! Thanks for the F/V and you appreciation of what I do in my "off" time!

Hank Hill (King of the Hill) would be proud of you Randy!

Wow! great picture "water boy" and wonderful description .... you are very clever indeed! .... patricia

Awesome idea Randy! Thanks for the great description. V/F

Sure saved me backaches and a lot of time with our drought conditions this summer, Sandy! Thanks so much for your great and encouraging comment. Much appreciated!

Great idea Randy, I love it!!

Thanks much, Sue, as i always appreciate and welcome hearing from you! I guess it is a lot, as with 6-7 hours on FAA, then another 4 hours on the yard, and then today, I got a big thrill of being asked to do a photo shoot for a friend who passed away, owned a golf course, which is now operated by his son. I took over 150 photos today in 7 hours of greens, birdies, pars, and bogies, and the rest were interesting. About the time I sat down to eat I heard the melody of Scotland, and after the shivers dispersed, I saw the bag piper coming out of the corner on the last hole of the course; What a great treat for me to hear, and talk to this Scottish gentleman and hear his folk lore of the sagas he plays about. Felt like I was actually there! It totally made my day!

Clever idea, Randy! That's alot of acres to take care of!!!
