A Bail Out and a Fall Out


The BAIL OUT. Dad Hilton's tractor has been in the quonset for years. Kevin decided to start it (took a while to figure that out since it had to be done manually). Then he drove it over to Bruce Wherry's, filled up the tires, and then parked it in back of the quonset. I remember Dad moving snow with this tractor, and giving us rides in the front bucket it had.

A FALL OUT. Yesterday, the Faulkton Farmers' Elevator had structural failure and lost a massive amount of grain. What a blessing that no one was hurt. They called Jim Melius to see if he could use some of the spilled grain; he said "no" since it would have concrete in it. So sad to see THE Landmark of Faulkton damaged!
