We have always loved what we do....<br /><br />Cathy, I so agree. They should see both methods of work...maybe wield a hoe in hard pan clay for a few minutes in the hot sun....just to get an appreciation for the difference made by technology in ag just as much as in other aspects of our lives.<br /><br />Linda, thanks! Maybe I will look into that. We still have stuff. Ralph kept the JD cultivators, just because he likes them. I couldn't justify keeping the sleigh, as it was deteriorating and we had no way to either store it better or restore it. Maybe someone else can.threecolliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811004278088768813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-67263876120168643972014-04-25T17:15:37.400-04:002014-04-25T17:15:37.400-04:00I'm so sorry you are selling your antiques!

Grade schoolers should be introduced to equipment like this . . and helped to understand that their not too distant ancestors made the earth bear fruit with it and by the sweat of their brow.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548755592157386484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-70079561559049794342014-04-25T15:00:02.379-04:002014-04-25T15:00:02.379-04:00Americans have no idea what we really lose when sm...Americans have no idea what we really lose when small farm operators have to shut down because they can't compete with the food giants.
