Dean- I'll think on it but probably will give it a try. There are a great deal of sensitivities to the memories.
John- Yes it was pheasant Mecca. Birds were everywhere. It was the era when most corn was harvested by a 'picker' attached to or towed behind a tractor. It was generally left on the ear and dried in cribs. The fields were left full of stubble, stalks, husks, etc and were lousy with birds. Combines were unheard of for corn. It all ended in the late 60's-early 70's with the end of the Soil Bank Program. The birds did not return until the advent of CRP. Sadly, that program is dying (budget) with the high price of corn and beans. Fallow land is history.
