No Legs...No problem One reason I love my job: Today I got to meet a parapalegic farmer who uses this awesome lift to get into his tractor.

To get shots of him driving his tractor...I was able to throw the camera on my shoulder....hang off the side while holding onto this bar...as he drove the beast down the road.

My friends from back home make references to corn every time they ask me how I'm doing. But this was my first farm story....(story focused on how a program that helps disabled farmers is not going to get the nearly $200,000 the state allocated for this group in the budget). http://www.agrabilityunlimited.org/

It was such a blast getting to ride off the side of the tractor. And when the farmer found out I've never really taken a ride in a tractor before (haunted hay rides don't count)...he offered to give me a ride in the Combine in the fall. I think I might take him up on that offer. Sweet deal!

Nicest guy ever....and it turned out to be a great story besides the fact I still can't read a teleprompter. I'm better off without it. It does weird things to sentences and makes me look like an idiot.
