My Husband's POV

Uploaded: September 24, 2006

Description

I always love it when I get a chance to ride with my husband while he is Winrowing. He has a 4-row winrower. Meaning it takes 4 rows of potatoes and places them into one. His brother is behind with a 2-row winrower. In the distance is the potato harvester, which is run by our nephew. Harvester digs two more rows for a total of picking up 8 rows @ a time. There is a truck which he is loading with another there ready to take over when that truck is loaded. We are on a side hill, I was going to straighten but thought I would give you my husband's real POV

What a great harvest image Roxanne! It just amazes me the work these tractors can do compared to when human hands had to pick them all one by one. #528059
