Corn prices are about to go back down. This year 20% more corn was grown than last year in the United States, and supply is now exceeding demand.
You have quite a few retirment options, you could sell out entirely, even the real estate, and move into one of those swanky Florida retirment parks, get you a golf cart to ride around on, play golf daily, etc.... Some of those parks will allow you to keep a motor home for touring the countryside at your leisure. If you got a home in a gated community you could then be pretty much free to leave for months at a time and not have to worry about your place. The downside is you would have to give up everything you have now, I don't know as you could even keep a tractor, and those parks all have very close neighbors living on maybe 1/8 of an acre. You can't own very much to live in one of those parks, in fact, its kinda rare that those folks own more than 1 car. In the park I visited you pay a lot rent and own your home, which would be a pre fab home of a select manufacturer to match all the other homes in the park, lot rent was $350 a month and included lawn mowing. Basically the upside of living in one of these parks is they are pretty safe, and would allow you to be able to travel around freely, the downside is you would have to sacrifice all your material possesions and give up an awful lot compared to what you have now. Also, with the home owners association rules, you couldn't work on much of anything either if you are a tinkerer, they were the type that had small garages, with very little or no tools in them and absolutly no junk or extra stuff. Everything was kept looking like the pages of Better Homes and Gardens magazine.

In the last entry to this series we gave a brief overview of hydraulic system theory, its basic components and how it works. Now lets take a look at some general maintenance tips that will keep our system operating to its fullest potential. The two biggest enemies to a hydraulic system are dirt and water.
