That farm thing sounds a litttle like me. 2 horses, sold my 3rd today. He was like an extra wheel or something. Ride 2 leave one home. Only 3 chickens now. Just enough for a few fresh eggs for the old girl and me. 2 dogs 2 cats, no pigs right now. 14 last year. Have to start looking in the spring. Gotta love it. Just tapped some maple trees. Getting ready to make syrup. A whole lot of work, but I enjoy making it. Nothing like fresh side pork or homemade sausage and pancakes. Use to take a lot of beer per gallon to make it !! Can't forget the past.
Yupper Rick Boy. Nothin like it. Making home brew. Growing pot. And tapping trees.
Had to give up on a couple of those. haha.
Used to get drunk--throw a saddle on a horse and ride full gallop. That ceased one day, when the horse decided to stop suddenly, and I became an airplane without wings (Flying through the air, with the greatest of ease) and "BOING!!! "Thud" and "Ouch" set in.
Then there were the 400 chickens that started to grow and lay eggs. Um-did you ever see a drunk trying to gather eggs, half in the bag? Sold all of them for a big financial loss. They were always cackling about something anyway. The noise in the morning, did not help the hangover.
The beef? Was at a hotel drinkin one night with a buddy, and sold them all for 800 dollars. They were worth about 8 grand.
Needless to say-Ive retired from farming. --retired from big city life--and am just a small town Hillbilly.:) with 3 taxi cabs, and 3 drivers in AA. My pets today? 4 fish and a pussytat. The problem with that one is trying to keep the pussytat out of the fish tank. oooh--my. The reality of it all. hahaha
ohh yaa--I had to sell Porky. He became a pet, and I just couldnt ---well--you know--"sniff."
Drunks Nic? All the drunks around here on weekends, just drink and fall asleep. hahaha the only problem is--wakin them up. :)
Later Gater.
