I'm going to be doing 40-45 acres of hay next year and got to thinking about the whole faming thing. I don't claim to be a farmer, In fact at forty acres I think it might still be a hobby.

I'm going to be doing the hay for some neighbors that have the land but don't have the time or flexability to bale.
I remember reading somewhere in '91 that the three most respected occupations were firefighter, paramedic and farmer. I don't remember which was one, two or three, but I feel honored to have a part in all three albeit small when it comes to farming.
