I was in the Army for ten years then in the reserves for twenty more. I was born and raised on this farm about twenty miles west of Dubuque, Iowa. I farmed full time after the Army but with kids coming I needed more income. I went to work at a local John Deere dealership in 1978. I have worked at three different JD dealerships. I have been a mechanic, service manager, salesman, and sales manager. I left the last dealership six years ago. We finally had everything paid off so I could make it with just farming, trading/selling equipment, and repair work.
My four sons all live close by. This last fall we bought a friend's trucking business out after he passed on with cancer. So we now have three semis hauling hay, grain, and feed. I don't do as much repair business as many of the smaller farms, that where my main customers, are gone now.
I am sixty-one years old. My hands really bother me(carpal tunnel and arthritis) if I wrench all day. So I drive for the boys some and do some repair work. Generally semi retired.
