Dad stopped farming in the early 60's. About that time farm land was being sold off. Farming was not possible even if I wanted to do it. Couldn't wait to get out of school. Had the chance to go to college, but didn't. Might say I hated school. Got a job at a factory in town. Then there was the draft. Joined the Navy. After the Navy, I got married. Then I got a job with the Burroughs computer co. (now Unisys) Stayed with them 36 years. While there I was on the night shift, and started my discing business, since Dad still had the tractors and the truck to haul them. Then added Mowing. After retiring, I continue my tractor work in the spring. Dad never had a hobby, other than working. I have my motorcycles which I guess is my hobby. As for not going to college, I don't regret it one bit. At 71 life is good, and have my wife, and five grand kids close by. Stan
