I have this feeling I NEED to be on a farm! Both sides of my family were farmers for many generations. Here is a photo page I made a while back for one of my grandsons. It is of my dad and his dad.

So cool! I know my mother's grandparents farmed, but I don't know anything about my dad's side of the family other than they came from Norway. Neato.

COOL

Tony's Grandpa would only farm with horses....Tony said he traded many a horse back and forth with his other farmer friends lol

even when tractors came out he wouldn't use anything but his team

My family had an 80 acre farm in Elkton, Ohio that was passed down through 3 generations (until I was 4 or 5).

It still angers my Dad to think about how he let his parents sell it. He was in his early twenties at the time and was broke/trying to support a budding family.

Neat.
