Pieter Baggerman, 86 years young still swathing hay on the family farm on East Valley Road last week in Houston. “There aren’t many 86 year olds haying anymore and I thought it would be cool to have a piece of history in the paper,” said Sandy Neil, daughter of Baggerman. “The swather he is running is about 50 years old as well.
