From 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, visitors to the farm can see what life on a working farm was like in the early 20th century — without having to engage in the hard labor most farmers en- dured. Owners and operators Kathy and Lee McCaskill share fall and spring vignettes of farm life that regularly attract thou- sands for lots of downhome fun. The fall event features live music, farm-fresh con- cessions, hay rides, games, a pumpkin patch, horseback rides, a hay maze and more. There’s so much to do and see, in fact, Old McCaskill Farm has made a map for farm day visitors; it has a couple of dozen locations marked for such activities as the pony cart and horse rides, chair caning demonstrations, live bluegrass music, games, face painting and pumpkin paint- ing. Visitors can witness the working saw mill and grits mill, woodworking and blacksmithing, enjoy concessions and see farm animals such as sheep, goats, chick- ens, ducks, cattle and pigs. Children can pet some of the animals and also play in PHOTO PROVIDED Given its proximity to Halloween, Fall Family Farm Day boasts a pumpkin patch and even bales of hay decorated like jack-o’-lanterns.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.
