Hello! Here is what Mrs.Fish wanted me to do today!
Writing Assignment: Write a final draft of your essay on the following topic: Who is an influential person in your life and why?
So here it is:
My dad is definitely a very influential person in my life because first of all he is my dad. He is the person who inspired me to be a farmer. And my family comes from a long line of farmers so I want to live up our family legacy. My grandpa’s first tractor was a Massey Ferguson 35 which is the first Massey Ferguson tractor ever. My dad’s first tractor was a Massey Ferguson 270 and mine is a Farmall SW4. I’m not sure what my great grandpa’s first tractor might of been but I’m assuming it could of been a Fergusson, Massey Harris or a old tractor that had metal tires.
My dad really influence me because he is the one who helps me with a lot of things like I remember once he help me replace the chain on my bike. and I’ve done many cool things with him and even grandpa like fix the bailer when a sprocket broke.
In the picture dad is on the bailer I’m on the ladder and granpa is the guy leaning on the bailer.
I remember one of the first times I helped dad fix a few shear bolts that kept breaking over and over again on the manure spreader. He is also the one who taught me how to drive the tractors for the first time and he has taught me how to run almost everything on the farm besides the dump trailer because I new how to run the hydraulics and how to back up the trailer. And I hope he might know how to start my tractor once I fix it up.
I remember early this summer I was raking with the small tractor and I remember one of the pins that hold the three point hitch broke and I called dad and we were able to fix it together.
There was also another time when the belt on the lawn mower popped of and dad called grandpa and asked him if he could bring a belt next time he came so we can fix the lawn mower then the day grandpa came we fixed the lawn mower!
Last weekend I helped dad but the doors back on the M9540 since the AC broke down early this summer and we weren’t able to fix it and since it’s getting cold again we put the doors back on it. But the AC breaking down is not Kubota’s fault that happened it’s the AC manufacturers fault.
I’m also very glad he kept his photo album because there is many cool pictures in there. Here is a picture of a Massey Claas combine my dad and grandpa where looking at back when does where brand new wich was 1980’s to 1990’s.
Grandpa is in front of the combine in that picture.
Here is a picture Emma took of dad in 2019 without asking to use my phone 
.
That’s it!
