Heidi's post: My favorite part of the museum was seeing the old farm tools. It's crazy to think of how they went from the hand tools, to the horse pulled plow, and then to the modern beet harvester that they displayed at the museum today. I found it interesting but would also dread being a farmer back then were it would be very difficult to run a large scale farm with that technology.

    I agree with you. I wonder how long it would take the farmers to plow. They must of had lots of patience.

    It is very impressive how much horses were used back then, and it makes me feel really bad for them. They were used to transport us and even do work for us and I'm glad we have things today that replace the horses.

    I agree! I thought it was interesting to see how far farming has come. My grandpa farmed years ago, but I never understood how far the technology has come since.
