A sign of wisdom from old age is that I find them funny rather than awful--
I said before; I hate passwords because the only place they're needed is finance or personal privacy which should be my choice. Windows ten refused my password; cost me of over a hundred to fix that. Now an upgrade, no access because password not recognized. I guess I don't know which is worse;password or Microsoft.
Love the picture-dislike royal families or royalty of any kind. Best welfare families in the world! Or worst.

Personally I hate passwords on most accounts. Most often they are required (useless is a good word)where there is no need. The only place passwords make sense is finance and on private correspondence. Even this site is guilty as there is no good reason to have to sign in each time. If there is a way to avoid this each time sign in, there should be a notice on how to do it.
Insanity may be a basic requirement for the job, but consider the skill needed to perform these stunts!!
As one from a farm background, I sure do like these pictures. Superb photography! Don't see any way you could have done better than these wonderful pictures.
Took me a long time to learn that as well! And I bet true for a lot of you people as well.
Yes I have. I spent many hours cranking one while my dad sharpened hay mower sickles and other things needing sharpening. When we got electricity in 1944, (thanks to REA) mu dad figured out a way to hook up an electric motor, This was wonderful as I no longer had to turn the crank. Ours had a hand crafted wood frame as in the thirties we couldn't afford the fancy one showed in the really good picture.
Now, now. No racist jokes! But,man, these are these funny.
Us old timers are very wise=but as this proves, we're not always right.

That is very true. We used to be able to jack up the rear wheels put it in reverse and over a couple of days gain new life.
When I was a kid, my dad jacked up the model T, put a belt on a rear wheel, hooked up to the buzz saw and sawed wood . And in Minnesota winters we needed LOTS of wood.
When I see pictures like these. first it's amazement and admiration; then it's how the heck does someone get these shots? Steady hand Luke, for sure.
For picture #1. As one who has lost two daughters, I recognize the feeling. Very good photo.
When you say old pictures--are you sure? Looks to me more likely it was taken today.
