I do declare, God bless all of you FARMERS and keep you safe. The hours and hard work you do goes so much unappreciated because so many people have no idea what you do. My thanks to ya and my much appreciation. I was raised on a farm but never had to work as hard as you guys do, thanks again.

At 6:40, adding grain to the mixture for those cows is like adding chocolate chips to pancakes for the kiddies. As far as not receiving the new tractor that day (2/18), I had a passing thought it was being used with an attachment to clear driveways and parking lots to earn some extra cash with that recent snowfall.
