OUT OF SIGHT

       Well it seems someone reads what I write, and I would like to thank everyone for the e-mails. It's true I'am still kicking. We have been busy with the farm and since my wife and I run this place we need to work around the clock sometimes, so somethings get put on hold. We have been baling hay and have a little more than half of it done for the first cutting. We have square barns so we square bale and it takes a little more work. The results are that we control the amount that the cattle eat and have very little waste. We also sold some cattle the a gentleman from Fairmont, who liked the cattle so much he wants any we sell. We raise Limousin cows that we cross with Hereford bulls, so the red-white faced offspring are tall and have large bodies, makes my mouth water everytime I look at them(steaks-steaks-steaks) so we never have any trouble selling any. Only complaint so far is that we don't charge enough. Lots of new babies and chickens (green and brown egg layers) so we've been busy. I'll try to write more, but the weather is changing again, and the hay is waiting for me. Nothing ever stops on a farm, always something to play with.
