This is the third in a series
which Nancy will write from
Belgium, her host country.
Since I have portrayed the
social life here in Belgium,
you might be wondering if I
do any work! Well the truth
is that I do a lot of work when
the sun shines. Since
Belgium has about 270 days
of rain per year you can
guess how much sun I have
seen since I’ve been here.
My first host family,
Taelman lived on a 250 acre
farm. When I arrived, it was
sugar beet weeding time.

With close to 100 acres of
sugar beets to be weeded by
hand and hoe, it can’t be
hard to imagine that I spent
three weeks in the beet
fields We worked six days a

1500 head of Landrace swine

have too much contact i i
that department
The h>oe« famdj was m\
second host and lived only 25
kilometers from the
Taeiman family On my
second farm they had 450
acres of grain crops,
sugarbeets, string beans,
and alfalfa. When the har
vesting of the wheat began, I
became actively involved in
baling straw on 200 acres.
Baling 9000 bales of straw
seemed to take an eternity,
and it’s true when I say we
baled from 8:00 a.m. until
midnight. It is necessary to
work long hours because of
the constant fear of rain
delaying the work. This year
the production was down
because of too much ram -
the combines were unable to
get into the fields. In August
we had three weeks of rain,

any harvesting.
Before I saw the end of the
9000 bales I moved to my

about 150 kilometers south of
my first two families The

dimension of helping with
the milking I have taken
over feeding the calves.
When the straw w r as
finished we began the
harvesting of potatoes I am
learning to quickly separate
the stones from the potatoes
- the machine doesn’t know
how to work slowly!! When
the potatoes are finished we
will begin making corn
