Tractor Pull, Part 2

I meant to write about this, but forgot...

One of my favorite things at a tractor pull is when a father lets his son drive the tractor.

There were probably three or four boys-becoming-men that drove tractors in this pull, with their dads walking along side, coaching them. One kid was a bit chubby with reddish hair and freckles. He unconsciously kept pushing out his lower lip in concentration. I don't think he ever took his eyes off his dad.

There's something about it that makes me almost need to pull out a hanky.
