He was good at it - the cows he "showed" at the state fair won blue ribbons. But after my brothers and I threatened to beat him and store him in the well, he agreed to go down to a diesel truck school in TN. {Witholds deragatory comments re: TN.} He's a darn good mechanic. When he graduated he had 3 job offers, the one he took is here in Michigan. He's changed jobs twice, both for pay raises. We gloated quite a bit this summer when Uncle Sam paid most of the Dairy Farmers to not sell their milk in order to keep the prices high. There wasn't much work. What kind of appreciation did we get?: He wants to move down to TN so he can work on a dairy farm down there "without us messin' with his life". We should'a just killed him.

I am sure you learned many life lessons as well as some things other 14 year old's would not learn for many years. You are fortunate to have that experience.
