Dad grew up on a small farm in Ohio and in 69 decided he wanted his own place but prices were high at home so he packed us up and moved to WI. I was 3.

Mom was a teacher at the local elementary school and helped by bringing home lots of extra animals like sheep and goats and horses (she was a country girl but not a farm girl if you know what I mean)
Dad was the last guy to run cans for the local dairy and we got a bulk tank in 71. Upgraded the tractors to a Farmall 460 and a brand new IH 444 with a loader, man was that a sweet little thing on the baler compared to the JD A, I got to drive the 460 on the baler when I was 5 cuz it was easier for dad to get me started and hop off to get on the wagon, I couldn't reach the clutch, just steered to keep it on the windrow.....
