Personally not my thing, but I have a relative who is very into his tractors and makes a LOT of money with the tractor-collecting stuff ... it's a big business
This was one of the few teens on the trip, not an adult, so it's doubtful that he was collecting tractors. It was more of a catalog really from what my students told me. They were all shocked that someone would bring a tractor catalog all the way to Europe instead of just appreciating the sights. You'll also note that I wasn't bashing tractors or tractor collecting, just the fact that if all you can do is complain about everything when you are in a foreign country and say how much better everything is back home, why not just stay home?

Shiner - Bobby is so not Jersey...

And still, no one has answered my original question...are Californians yankees or not?
