This cutie was going to the dump...untill I told Lori (Loveshorses) to paint it some wild colors. She did and was I ever sorry that I didn't haul it to "my dump" instead. Is that cute or what? Big mouth me!!!!

Thanks for the compliments all!!!! I do appreciate them!!! You have to understand though, my son brought this [junk] home about three years ago and swore he was goung to get it running. Well, he did, just long enough to go for a joy ride around the property!!!. There it sat. FOREVER!!!!!. I got tired of looking at it and was going to junk yard it when my sweet friend JCoats, the avid gardener said" don't throw that away! I will put it in my garden. Well, she blue it!!! A light went off and hence forth, GARDEN ART! Now I am going to have to try and find a TINA TRACTOR for her or she will never let me live this one down. My daughter and I had a ball creating this project. Thanks again!! You expecially, JCoats!!!
