Didn't think when backing into a parking space last night.  Just my tractor, squeezed in between two others in a narrow space, so I pushed farther back than them so my mirrors would be clear of theirs and all of us would have no problem opening our doors.  I guess I pushed back off the pavement into an anthill.

When I woke this morning and stepped outside to brush my teeth I saw a line of tiny brown ants inside the drivers door threshold working their way under the dashboard.  Then I saw them ON the dashboard and I traced them back to the steel frame of the tractor where I guess they had crawled up around the tires.

Lord knows what they are looking for, but I've spent a lot of time this morning with a whisk broom and and paper towel flinging them away or smooshing them - god I hope they aren't back in the sheets by this evening!
