Dear Robert: I drove my father's small Ford tractor as a young man, even though my vision was fading fast. Now that I have lost all vision, I am only willing to drive a tractor when a sighted person is on the tractor with me, giving me directions. I would suggest that you buy a new model with a cab, air-conditioning and a good stereo, and then try and keep your lady friends from wanting to mow your lawn. You can also get one with GPS, for those blond friends, who need help figuring out where in your lawn they are at a given time. When you tire of the new toy, give me a call, and I will see if I can come to your rescue by taking it off your hands.

This place is just too much to mowe with a standard lawn mower. So we're looking at tractors and I'm wondering if there's any feasible way a blind person can use it.
