AzPicLady Loc: Behind the camera!
 
I grew up on a farm and still love it - although I don't do it personally now. It is one of the hardest and most rewarding works there is. My rather never lost a limb - not even a finger. I recall how often he cautioned me to NOT GET CLOSE to moving parts and to ALWAYS turn off the PTO! But I also recall watching him and my uncle, both well into their 70's, standing in the combine freeing up the auger with it moving!

Funny but not funny, I lost half of my ring finger about 50+ years ago, never made that mistake again!
