I found this article about Dorothy Clark in an old issue of American Magazine:

Here she is on her nifty Farmall tractor

Here's the article about her career shift from pianist to farmgirl

And the cover of the magazine:

A true farmgirl sister from the 1930's! Love her!

That's inspiring - it definitely puts my little complaints in perspective, and what a cute picture - quintessential farmgirl!!

I like to think I look that happy when I'm driving my little orange Kubota tractor. :) Ms. Dorothy is beaming like the noontime sun in a bright blue sky! She's the queen of her world.
