This horse drawn wooden wagon must be nearly 90 years old I would guess. It is tired and old, but it still has character and is distinctive! Besides being a big fan of windmills, I am drawn to old farm machinery and buildings that look their age, but still are THERE as a sentinel of time. This wagon was with a collection of old farm machinery in a kind of outdoor museum near Stratford. I know my Dad picked corn by hand and tossed the ears into a horse drawn wagon like this one, and chances are this wagon could tell similar tales.
