Wheat Truck

Everyone in the family had a chance at driving wheat truck. I didn’t last too long. I stripped the gears driving into Hansen elevator and that was the end. I liked the kitchen alot better. Lorretta and Barbara both were very good wheat truck drivers. Jim drove truck for many years. Also Mike and Phil put in a few years.
