JD,I was raised on a small farm in Northern VA,My uncle owned it and he was very wealthy,but my father watched over the farm for rent and he beleived in the old fashion ways.We had tractors sitting in the barn but dad always said fuel was high and child labor was cheap.I remember dad hated cedar trees,and he would eather pull them up or cut them down.One day we cut a couple large cedars down and dad needed some gate post,I beleive they were 16in in dia.and several hundred yards from the barn.Instead of dad using a tractor to bring them to the barm he went and got a 2 man log hook and made us kids drag them.Every thing was manuel labor.We had a Farmall sa,and dad was to tight to buy a battery or actually to stubbron to ask my uncle,so we hand cranked it,I remember that thing kicking me to the next field.Mom and dad raised chickens each year to butcher,and I was so proud of him becaues he did a really nice job on building a off the ground verry large chicken pen,at the very last he decided it needed a covering over the door in case it was raining and he went and found a old peice of tin and just nailed it up,it looked terrible,The stories go on and on
