Two nice looking machines! Plus an adventure you can always look back on...

Oh my gosh, those are both excellent machines. Lucky you. BTW a lot of people will honk their horn in the field to call the cows that it's time to eat. They all moo a lot then.

The red eye looks like it's in great shape but if you already have one that has meaning to you then it makes sense to get rid of it.
Congrats on your new featherweight.

Such a story. I love when we have good stories on our posts every day. I would have been aggravated like you probably were because the cows wouldn't move, but would have know that the horn was call to food for them. I don't remember what you had to do to get them to moooooooove; waiting them out was not an option, huh?

Congrats on the Featherweight! I am patiently waiting for my own to appear. The Red Eye is a nice looking one too! I think you had a productive day! Love the cow story too. i would have been just as lost, a little honking, maybe trying to "shoo" them.
