My father-in-law worked every summer walking the corn in NE when he was a kid. My husband decided washing dishes at Bishops was more his likeing, LOL. Still trying to get one of my kids to fly out there for the summer and "walk the corn". We in Connecticut don't have such options. I could never understand how a child could get lost in a corn field till I visited Nebraska.
