In the late 70's (in the days before the chemical "Roundup") I was walking up and down rows of cotton in TN with a hoe in my hand.

(If I took the toughest jobs on the farm my father would let me off early so I could get in several hours of tennis every night - good days! :) )

My remembrance of working in a farm setting, was driving the tractor when I was five years old, so the grown-ups could toss the bails of hay on the wagon. I remember picking grapes, blackberries, and corn. I wasn’t all that happy about it either. LOL

Little brother started a business in high school chopping cotton. Did pretty good too.
