I don't remember much of 44 as I was only 6, however, I know that 53 was alot like 2003. A very wet fall and early winter. I was beginning HS with one broken arm and the FFA class had 10A of sugar beets and we dug them by hand and chain ganged them to the solid road where they were forked onto 2 tonners for a trip to the processing factory. Kids and horses were able to mire through the muck and we got the beets. After the arm healed a couple of us helped a local farmer dig beets with a fork, pile them and he later came back in the winter on solid ground and loaded them out of the field. I'd say we are going in cycles, just like our nation is going in circles and the farmer is getting a very rough ride on the ole merry-go-round. My 2 pennies.
