I had the doctor, who is from another country, who worked with my dad prior to his passing, ask to bring his children out to see the farm some time, as they have never been to one. Which I will have out this fall. It got me thinking, there are so many young people, of most races, that never get to see any life outside of their neighborhood , which sadly these days are very bad areas for young peoples view on what life is and will be. It made me think maybe there should be a group, that arranges disadvantaged young people with farm families. I think a spending a weekend on a farm with a little "fun" chores, seeing, touching, caring for animals, riding in tractors combines, walking the land, learning about how corn, beans and other crops grow. I know I live about 8 miles from st cloud, and always invite people over that I meet, but I know there are folks out there that I may never meet that could really benefit from spending some time on a farm. In St Cloud we have alot of Somalians, and most are very good people that just want to raise a family also, I'd imagine it'd be quite an eye opener for them. Do any of you do anything like this? Would you be worried about anything?

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
