The weather has finally cooled off enough that I can get out and work on many of the projects I have wanted to do. Plus the boys are chopping so I try to slip over and help some. All of that has meant that I have much less time on the PC/internet. So I am sure I have missed out on all types of things world wide. LOL More than likely a good thing.
It is funny that many of us have "worked" so long that if we don't work we feel guilty about it. That is kind of a strange thing really. I guess we place a lot of our self worth on what we can do. I know I feel strange not doing the chores in the morning/nights. It is not that I feel my son can't do the job as well it is more of missing the standard routine that I have done for most of my adult life. I actually miss the crisp cold morning air. The smell of the cattle and feed in the air. That is many times the most peaceful feeling you can have. Sounds are like that too. I kind of miss the bang of the hog feeder lids in the barn yard or the soft grunts of a sow nursing her litter of piglets.
I did get to meet and talk to a fellow that owns/runs a large farming operation in Brazil. It cultivates about 50,000 acres. He is an interesting man. He has a very different view on the world of farming. He is a second generation owner/grower. He told me he rarely is in the fields for much besides checking crop conditions. I do not think I would like that much. His life is more book work and number pushing. That would not be interesting to me.
So all of you have a safe harvest and enjoy the fall season.
