I think I got the dozer for my birthday that year.
My mom always gave my brother and me complimentary Tonkas: he'd get a front end loader and I got a dump truck. He'd get tractor trailer and I got a dozer. And so on. We never got a crane - upwards of $20! She would section off a part of her garden and we could dig and make roads to our content, but we better not be seen amonst the carrots!

I had the sand and top soil pit behind our house to play in. Just had to remember to pick everything up after "work" or there was a real good chance my equipment would have been run over before the next day...

At the time I bet it was a drag having to cut your peddle car loose. "Just imagine" if you had them today.

Yeah I wish . . . wish my kids could have played with them, but I knew at the time that they were going to a good home with someone who would have as much fun with 'em as we did. That does take a lot of the pain out of it.

My favorite Christmas memory was of my chocolate lab when I was 15. He absolutely LOVED snow, and would slide down hills on his back. We were at our sledding hill, and he tried climbing onto a saucer sled. His front legs slipped out from under him on the slippery plastic, so he was laying on his shoulder on the sled, but his hind legs were still standing. He realized he could slide faster this way, and for the better part of an hour he was sprinting all over the place with his back legs while half laying on this saucer. We all could not stop laughing, he was hysterical to watch. This was the days before camera phones, so no video proof, but that memory will last forever!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
