I'm 74 and I can remember our team, Bob and Jack. Bob was a big black Percheron.
There were actually two Jacks. We got rid of one and got another Jack. Both were
sorrel Belgiums. Bob was my horse an Jack my younger sister's. She never knew
they were switched. We (when I say we or mine or ours it actually means my grandad
and uncle) did a lot of work with those 2 horses. Walk behind single furrow plow,
sinle row walk behind cultivator, 2 horse riding cultivator (luxury), riding
International 5 foot mowing machine etc. Was a lot of work for horse and man. I
was probably about 4 when my uncle bought his first tractor. A Case VAC. I can
remember my grandad arguing about the way the tractor plowed. I was allowed to ride
on Bob during all the work except mowing. We brought in a lot of loose hay and
would unhook one horse in the barn and use it to operate the hay fork to unload the
wagon into the mow. I helped tramp down the hay in the mow. We had Bob until I was
in high school. I still have a lot of horse equipment and harness and other old
farm things but I unfortunately got rid of the riding cultivator and mower. So much
for this nostalgic rambling. The old days we remember romantically but I really
don't want to work that hard now. I complain about hitching up 3 point equipment.
