it is history that is gone. the young people have no idea on the amount of work it took to keep the farm running. i had to do the chores cause dad was away in lumber camps working. ooh,.. on time we had relatives come from vancouver to visit in the summer. i was doing chores and put the cows in the barn for milking. got everything ready and the city slicker said can i do that. meaning to milk the cow. it was a milking machine. so he puts the bucket under the cow then he says "ok bessy let her go" . boy i laughed at him. never did forget that!i was like 16 years old. used to go to the straw pile with the w6 mccormick and had to bring loads of straw to bed the cows on the cold days in the barn. plus clean the barn on cold days cause milk cows had to stay in not to freeze their teats. now a days i think those kids would report a person for abuse before even trying to do chores. but yes i had to work hard but now i am on the same farm and often think of the old times! lol. dont realy regret it though.
