Today my story will be late…i.e. evening.
Why? Big load returning from a movie set. But let me send this teaser. Every threshing season when we were small was a time of hard labour for all generations. As kids we had various jobs one of which was rearranging ‘stukes’ of bound bundles of grain on the hay wagon. This was a bit tricky in that we were armed with pitchforks and had to move fast. We did this labour on the Townsend farm, the Freeman farm and the McEchern farm. All Wellington County farms. Angus McEchern always steered to the fencerow occasionally so we could feast while working.
QUESTION: WHAT were we eating? Full story coming.
