Amish and corn 2 of 2 video's today.

Today as we were going to Noah's football game, we passed our Amish neighbors putting up their corn.  We couldn't resist and turned around and took their pictures.  It is so different than putting corn up with a tractor and a corn header.  Corn was my favorite crop to put up and I'm glad I didn't have to put it up with horses.

There are two teams here.  One pulling the conveyor and the other one the wagon for the stacked corn.

 There are two horses pulling on the inside and three on the outside.




The other day I saw a father and a little girl, the little girl about 8 was driving the horses and the father was picking up the cut corn and putting it on the wagon.



Then on to the football game.

You guys are lucky to be back there with the amish and see all of that old style farming. Wouldn't want to do it but it is fun to watch.
