My Cub is a Chick Magnet

Postby goldencub » Tue Aug 13, 2013 4:03 pm

This past weekend, I was hauling the last of the split firewood from a spot near the road. It's a popular route for horseback riders. On TWO separate occasions, attractive young lady riders paused to say "Hi" and to say what a nice day it was. Then, one gal said "Oh, what a cute tractor that is!", smiled and rode away. The other rider said "That's a really nice-looking tractor you have" and rode away. I had no idea that my Cub was a Chick Magnet!!! I only wish I had known about that fact 50 or so years ago!!!!

It would have been a lot better if they didn't ride away! :lol:
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Seems "Rode Away" is the operative phrase....Perhaps they prefer if you took them for a "Ride on Your Big Green Tractor". This post gave me a good laugh in the Marriott in lovely Paramus, NJ this evening.

It was either that or a pic or two of the horses. Quite frankly, I'd rather see the wood than the horses. :lol:

It's like bringing your little Bro to the beach when he is around 8. All the ladies like it, but don't expect to take one home. Just get the phone number. :0

The only bad thing is the gal who liked my Cub moved in and married me.
Tractors are like watermelons: the RED is good and you throw away the GREEN.
