April 1st, 1901 was the day my grandfather and grandmother moved onto the farm I currently own. My father was born there in September of that year. They added onto the house in 1905 making it a five-bedroom home and had a poured concrete silo erected in 1911. In 1914 they purchased a neighboring farm and added onto and remodeled the main dairy barn in 1915. They purchased another neighboring farm in 1930, during the depression. Paid cash. No mortgage since the original was paid off in 1914. No debts, highly productive land although accompanied by a much shorter growing season than Iowa, good neighbors although not as many anymore, excellent markets for farm products, great transportation network, lots of trucks. 25 150 car trains go through every 24 hours. Cold in winter, hot in summer. Looking forward to a great year. Happy April first.
