Bruno Q125

This summer, Bruno, the farming community that Jarod grew up in, celebrated there 125th birthday.  To celebrate, we were transported back in time while we watched the farmers harvest using a very old threshing machine.  This machine belonged to Jarod's great grandfather Frank Kastl who passed it down to his grandpa Ted Kastl. 

 


What a treat for us to watch how it was done a long, long time ago.  I'm sure it makes the farmers of today appreciate their GPS driven tractors and air-conditioned cabs!  I wonder what farming will be like when these two yahoos are old enough!
 
Here is a picture of Great Grandpa Ted Kastl in 1967.  You can tell where Grandpa Dave gets his good looks (and beard growing ability)!






This Model A Ford belonged to Ted Kastl and was restored by Dave and his brothers.  What a trip down memory lane for Grandma!
