    I learned to unload on- the- go when I was real young. That way the combine didn't need to stop cutting. I grew up 30 miles South of Spokane, WA. We had some of those fun hills. Those eyebrows were fun to sled down in the winter.

    Grew up on farm in the Palouse. Nine years old I was the,”Cat-skinner”. Some hills I would have the cat track right on the grain cut the Deere 36B would be at an angle behind me so that only about a 1/3 of the header was cutting grain. No big…everyday business.
