I grew up on a farm about 30 mi north of San Diego Calif. The town is Encinitas, Dad's farm was about 5 mi from town. We didn't have too many close neighbors, just myself, and my two brothers. Dad raised lima beans, black eye beans, and oat hay. Dad stopped fariming about the time I went in the Navy in 64, got out in 68. That was a very interesting time. Got married in 71. Raised two girls who were very active in 4H. They Showed beef, and dairy. We made several trips to Lewis town Montana to get the beef steers. One year my daughter had the grand champion steer. Dad passed away in 92. Along with his farming he had a discing business, which I strted again in the early 90's after he died. I retired from the Unisys computor co. about a year ago after 36 years. I was a machinery repairman, and did proto type machining towards the end. Iworked mostly nights, so had time for my tractor work. I still do discing, and mowing. I have all dad's old tractors plus a few more. I have, all colors I am not a color person, just as long as it works for me. Now my motorcycles are a different story. I am partial to the old indian motorcycles. My favoriet will be my 1937 indian chief. At this time I am working on a 1936 four cylinder indian, although my tractors take first priority, as they make money for me. At 65 I am still doing ok. That's my story, and I am sticking to it.
