I would say cutting pulpwood with the old man. He owned a little over 60 acres of mountain land, and when he got off work he would pick me up after school to go to the mountain and cut wood. Within a couple of days we would have a load on the truck and ready to haul to the mill.
Daddy did not want to have to drive 30 miles back to the mountain to get his pickup, so he had me drive it and follow him to town. We would stop on the outside of town and leave his pickup, and he and Mom would come back later and get it.

The old man was hard on us, but looking back today, I realize how much I learned from him. He never finished high school, but I got to say he was one of the smartest men I know.
