Oh Henry!

I forgot to mention an important Farcical Farm personality in the cast of characters -- Henry, our 1952 Ford 8N tractor. We provide him with an excellent retirement home, including a dry garage and the attention of several men (David, friends, neighbors) who like to fuss over his geriatric engine. In return he does odd chores around the place and doesn't complain when I drape horse blankets over his tires to dry.
