Grew up on the side hills with the farm site sitting in the valley next to a 350 acre lake. I often think of the sounds. The pounding of 2-cylinders on the plow. The purr of the Allis's on the hill. The hum of the Oliver 6. The scream of a new straight piped diesel. In the valley when the wind was right we could hear for some distance. As well as tractors we heard the bells of church 3 miles away. The growl of the SOO as she pulled western wheat to the Duluth docks long before it cut through our farm. The bark of the neighborhood milker pumps always sticks on my mind because there are but few left. The clanging of feeders. The squeal of hogs. The bark of neighboring dogs. The groan of the UPS truck with its sliding door. If it's groan got louder from the neighbor we might be in for a surprise. The slamming of doors and the beller of the wives at meal time. The honk of geese. The chatter of the swallows. The coo of the dove. The song of the meadow lark.
Thinking about this now and I realize we were wireless before our time!
