    I grew up on a farm along a small river called the Pomme De Terre and we didn’t grow potatoes. But we did have a potato lifter to harvest the 1/2 acre or so we would grow for our own consumption.

    There was also a small county picnic area in the middle of nowhere by the same name. And no one knew why it was there.

      So you had a potato lifter that just sat there, still and silent, in case you ever decided to grow 1/2 acre of potatoes?
