Everything in sight is, "just plain old"! The old farmer is fixing an old tractor. Two old mules rest beside an old hay rake. There are old hound-dogs sitting and laying around. The barn is old, as are the tobacco drying sheds. There are old cotton wagons, as well. Heck, the slate itself is 200 years old!

The Bible Scripture for this slate is:

"To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven."

- Ecclesiastes 3: 1

&

"I have been young, and now am old."

- Psalm 37: 25
