Dad and my uncle were 50/50 in a 116W, and both dairied. So we saw quite a bit of ours running each summer. I spent lots of time on the tractor pulling the baler since I was good at keeping an eye on the wire boxes, and listening and watching for trouble. In high school I finally switched to setting the forks at the barn. Sure wish you had followed close in at the back and let us watch the knives and other things function for awhile. I would switch off with the wagoner and give them a break every now and then, and it was fun to watch all the workings from the wagon. Thank you for a trip down memory lane!
