I wonder how big a farm a guy would need to qualify.
My half acre ain't cutting it.
More acres more action?

Sold our place and moved to town so we’d have the time and energy to get us some! (That’s not why, but we discovered it is a truth...)

Cutting, stacking and burning brush or fixing fence all day leaves little for Cupid to work with. Add building a house, a barn, and running a contracting business that I still work the jobs for, and she came asking for it more often than I volunteered. We dumped the farm for a good profit and got a place in town for a bit while we work out what to do next. All I can say is, towns oughta be overrun with kids, as easy as the livin’ is...

Now my Grandpa, there was a man. Did things like clearing 40 acres of bottom timber with his father in law, in August, with triple digit heat. They used mules and crosscut saws. He milked and fed before going to such work. And sired 5 boys in 5 years while doing all that. And grandma told me once that if she did not know what she was doing about supper before she finished making breakfast, the day was shot. She cooked everything from scratch, three times a day, and grew a true subsistence garden while keeping a house and raising 5 boys. They were far hardier folks than me, or even my parents. No wonder the country is going to hell in a handbasket these days...

Obviously the next move would be to buy another farm.

Not quite sure I'm ready for that. But, I think it might benefit me to turn some of the sagebrush into "farm" land here on the ranchito.

Jim, will your wife be quilting you a nice avatar?

Ha! Having a farm is way better than being young, happy and successful!

She has been rattling on about making me another quilt.

Her and the daughter are at the quilt meeting now. I should ask her about an avatar later.



I dont blame her for wanting to make me another quilt. She made me a fine International Harvester quilt many years ago.


It has served as the only covers on my side of the bed ever since.

It is falling apart, smells like Aqua Velva and old wet dog......reckon I could get a couple more 5 or six years out of it yet.

The most enjoyable part of farming is being in the field running machinery. The rest is labor intensive

It is, but you gotta live in town if you want to engage in it. Haven’t you paid any attention to what Jim and I have said?😁

I can attest that .7 to 1.7 acres doesn't garner more poon.
