      I worked the potato harvest in north Dakota for a lot of years. Cold muddy work. Definitely “built character”

      I never picked fruit until I went to a U-Pick. Spent two hours picking blueberries. The benefit was that I was going to eat it. But the thought of doing this for weeks straight sounds rough.
