Who Remembers these things, especially the last one

when I grew up, you did not talk when the weather came on TV. My aunt would say to her husband, “Dick, shut up, the weather is on!”

My Dad was the same way.

it is hard for young people to understand, but there was no internet and no instant weather in your via a smart phone.

So many things were done outside.At various times my Dad farmed, logged, picked wild rice, trapped,was a carpenter in a 1 or 2 man business, fed livestock, cut firewood.

All was done without bobcats, without cabs on a tractor, All work by hand with very few power tools.

Who remembers, no talking during the weather?
