I admire the vast amount of knowledge the farmer gains by being so self reliant and the long, hard days on the land. My dad was an auto mechanic who fixed many tractors in his day. I have a Ford 3000 with a blade to clear my drive, and travel up and down the lane. I would rather do that then attend meetings, answer phones and work on a computer any day. I salute all the farmers.....you do a great service.
