Subject: RE: My oldest boy is skipping school tomorrow, during harvest...


IL		My 17 yr old started in that seat at 12 or 13, though he didn't get to stay home from school. He had been on combine duty only as we weren't comfortable turning him loose on the roads with wagons. Last year at 16 he had enough of the combine, so we went to a rotation. He would load the wagons then take off, and I would load the semi and take off. He not interested in the semi yet, and the pair of 250 bu with the 4450 is easy to handle. Gets more grain on the road, and we're not burned out. our distance makes it work out, but farther fields, the trucks get priority.

I'm realizing now, this is his last year to help as much, before he goes to college
