Tractor Graveyard


This old McCormack-Deering sits in a nearby woods, slowly dissolving with rust. It had metal wheels, which didn't work too well when they froze to the ground; when a farmer dumped the clutch, they had a tendency to invert , killing or crippling the poor guy.

This is a view of a small house on an estate at the highest point of land in northeast Ohio.

Old Defender

This fire truck is a 1942 Ford which still runs, but it's duties are now limited to parades. It rests in an old station converted to a museum at the Mentor Fire Department, from which I retired.
This is a study for a larger piece I'm doing.
