8N

This is, as I learned, an 8N Ford tractor, which has a following among the connoisseurs of tractors.  I find it kinda cute.  I'd like to call her 'Ennie' or 'Annie', if I may, since I see her all the time.  The painting is a 10x10 oil on panel.  As I was painting it yesterday morning, a group of around fifteen Williams freshmen appeared on the dirt road.  They were carrying gear that indicated they were staying overnight on the mountain.  They decided to sit and have lunch behind me.  I must have looked scary since none approached to see what I was doing.  After I had packed up, I went over to wish them a great year in school.
