[birds singing] [car faintly whizzing] - [Shell] When I was growing up, all of the work that was done on the farm, we had mules and horses.

[door clacking] [keys jingling] [door squeaking] I think my dad was probably the first that was into farming.

My granddad, he worked, I think, at a place where they had mules and horses and whatnot, and I think he took care of them.

When I was about five or six years old, I can remember following my mom and sisters to where they were tying tobacco.

[birds singing] [tobacco rustling] [bright music] The photo was taken at our home farm.

My dad and granddad, Thomas Shell and Waverley Shell.

And they're standing in the front of one of the old barns where he flue-cured tobacco in, and actually, they're holding a stick of tobacco and a bundle of tobacco that has been cured.

So I sort of take my hat off to the older generation.
