Favorite farm life sayings

We’re burning daylight. Who checked the fence last?
I thought I set it down right THERE

 

[Valveman]

Working from dark to dark thirty.
Up with the chickens.
Stubborn as a mule.
Flying off the handle.
Make hay while the sun shines.
Like closing the barn door after the horse got out.
Too wet to ploy.
Walked to school uphill both ways with a potato in my pocket.
Like finding a birds nest on the ground.
Finish your plate. Starving kids in "another country" would kill for that.

I guess doing this is "better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick". Lol.

Go throw the cows over the fence some hay.

For someone who can’t throw or shoot. Couldn’t hit the side off a barn while standing inside it.

For being out in the middle of no where. Out where the hoot owls are screwing the chickens.

For someone who can’t throw or shoot. Couldn’t hit the side off a barn while standing inside it.

Around here it is: Couldn't hit a bull in the a$$ with a banjo

My brother in-law's first paying job was as a rock picker at a local farm. He was maybe 12-13 years old. I was actually surprised he could stalk and catch them.

Back to the original topic....

I'd stay away from that I were you... applies to a whole lotta stuff.
