Hi ya Bob,

Speakin' of hard work.

There is this old fella up the road from me a little ways who raises buffalo. He keeps off to himself and no one knows much about him other than he is somewhat of a "loner".

Anyway, this guy has got to be in his 70's or 80's and yesterday, when I went into town, he was out along the highway fencin' in a new 30 or 40-acre pasture for his big, burly beasts.

The thing was, he was doin' it like he did years ago, with the old arm-strong posthole diggers, the old tamper rod, the old rope stretchers, the fencin' pliers and the whole 9 yards.

Now, this guy has all the new toys to do this job 'cause I've seen him at it from time to time, but for some reason, on this particular day, he was doin' it the hard way.

I was so darned proud of this old guy!!!

If it wouldn't have been for my iced tea settin' on the table at home and gettin' warm, I think I would have stopped and asked him if I could help him for a little while. :>)

Allan
