Here is the story. I was sitting in the doctors office with my dad who had fallen and had broken two vertebrate in his back when my cell phone rang. of course there is the sign that says TURN CELL PHONES OFF . I quickly step outside to answer. It is my nephew who is at my farm . I can hear him but cannot understand what he is saying.It sounded like something and tractor. So I step to the outside and told him to say it again. Uncle Bill I turned the tractor over. You can imagine all the thoughts going thru my mind. I will kill him, how is my tractor and how the hell did you do that. Then I thought oh my gosh are you hurt? He said he was bruised on his arm but okay. Luckily he had fastened the seat belt and it and the rops kept him in the seat. He wanted what he should do now. He said it was laying on its side in the bar ditch. I thought oh well I will call a wrecker and see if they can stand it back up. There is a neighbor who lives up the hill who I depend on frequently. I called him and asked him if he would go and check on my twenty year old knucklehead nephew. In the mean time the doctor informs me Dad is going to have to have major surgery on his spine. Well Leonard, my neighbor ,called me and said Will was fine and he could use his backhoe and upright my tractor. All is well with the tractor and my nephew. My question is " do you use the seat belt on your tractor?
